Talking Had both my FDs detailed--- compound/polish/wax.... Lots O Pics

The last two weekends I had my trusty friend Bobby 'The Magic Man' Rahim work his Mojo on both my '95 Brilliant Black R-model w/sunroof (really a modified PEP, lol) and my newly acquired '93 Competition Yellow Mica R1.

He works in the NYC area at a high-end shop detailing, polishing, wet sanding, and otherwise making exotics look like a million bucks. He's used to dealing with Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsches etc from their basic offerings to the newest crop of Hypercars.

Needless to say, he's more than qualified to give our FD3s RX-7s some attention. He's also a rotary nut with a cousin in NY who owns a rotary-specific shop and his passion for these cars really shines through in his work. For those in the NYC/NJ area who are interested in his work please get in touch, hell anywhere in the tri-state area. IMO he's worth the trip...... I'll let the pics speak for themselves

(20 bones in FD-parts credit to anyone who can guess what specific T-shirt I'm wearing in the third shot)

I bet you would have a hard time convincing a non enthusiast that this car is 20 years old. Looks amazing.
