Almost close to getting the front brakes situated. Minimal clearance between the face and the caliper (no spacers).

Totally custom thing I'm working on. 15" RCF rotors with Gen 2 CTS-V 6 piston brembo calipers. These calipers should not be on this car due to how large they are but I'm very close to ironing all of the details out.

Trying to sand and prep the car so I can take it to a painter.

I did all of the prep work and provided the paint and the painter just sprayed it. He didn't charge me much either so its not perfect. I need to see about getting it wet sanded and buffed but I'm just happy its one color now (it's not a show car or anything). I'm sure my neighbors weren't too happy to see a multicolored car driving up and down the street for a year.

A detail shop should be able to buff polish paint correction and get you right. Check it out

just needs a good wet sanding/buffing and it will take care of it. just so you know, i wasn't talking ****. i didnt get mine wet sanded/detailed for about 2 weeks after painting . They wanted a few hot summer days to let it completely cure and then i was just to busy to get it back to them
