Default Photos of my black SC300 after 16 hour paint correction detail

Hey guys here are some shots after my 16 hour paint correction detail. The car also got brand new rotors and pads front and rear and new sway bar bushings front and rear also.

On a secondary note, I want to post it for sale in the classifieds but have not been a member for 30 days yet. Is there anything I can do to get this posted?

Enjoy the shots!

Sean

Great job on the detail, looks good man! As far as posting in the classifieds, you will need to have a qualified member to provide a VOUCH for you Sir! If you're to get a vouch, have the voucher pm a Moderator or post up in the classifieds. GL and keep us posted.

Thanks for the compliments on the detail guys I appreciate the positive comments! No engine photos as of yet, but it's just a factory 2JZGE.

Process/Products:
Rupes Bigfoot 21mm polisher
Meguiars MF Cutting disks for compounding paired with M100
Buff and Shine Green pad for polishing paired with M205
Optimum Opti-Coat on bumpers, mirrors, hood, deck lid and front fenders and the rest of the car was treated with Optimum Car Wax (I ran out of opti-coat)
Optimum Opti-Bond on tires

How do I find someone to vouch for me? I can ensure I am a good guy with good intentions. I simply want to upgrade to a MK4 Supra down the road!!

The paint looks amazing! You did an excellent job!

About the classifieds thing you will have to wait the full thirty days before you can sell. Over the past few years a lot of people we've had a lot of people try to join just so they can sell stuff and then they never post again so we changed the requirements to sell on here.

Go on facebook and post it on the SC Classifieds page if you are in a hurry. Also try ebay, local craigslist, etc.

Nice process and outcome.

How do you like the rupes? I've been wanting to try it, but I haven't been able to convince myself to buy one.

What SC Classifieds page? Its already on the local CL for $6,000. Do you think this is a realistic number?

That's too bad, dangit! I wanted to post on SupraForums.com but cant find an area for non-Supra cars?

The Rupes is absolutely amazing and worth every penny. This machine has more than triples its face value already for me if not more and I just do it on the side. If you are coming from a traditional DA like a PC or GG, its worlds smoother, quieter and much more powerful.

That's good to hear, and it makes me want it even more. The only problem is I don't detail car that often anymore. I can't even remember the last time I used my PC or rotary.

Are you using the 21 with a smaller 15 backing plate?

Indeed. Get the Rupes from Kevin Brown at Buffdaddy.com

I am using an Xact fit BP from him on the 21 to fit my 5.5" pads.
