Malekreza Detailed: 2007 Speed Yellow Porsche Carrera Cabriolet

Malek@MRF · 04-02-2009, 04:22 PM

Hey guys,

Here is a Speed Yellow Porsche Carrera I detailed a little while ago. This car was in pretty bad shape, inside and out. Full of stains, scratches, scrapes, swirls, fallout, oxidation and surface rust.

The interior was in pretty horrible shape, just as bad as the outside. There are lotion stains all in the leather, steering wheel, scuffs on the plastic, food and drink stains all over.

Luckily the entire paint was not full of horrible swirls and intensive polishing was not required, just a fine polish, but some parts of the paint, mainly parts of the doors and bumpers had pretty bad scrapes from various things. I was able to get all of it out and make her look great again.

Great job. Too bad all of the curb rash isn't a quick fix.

And as an aside... tiptronic? Really? What a tragedy.

Wow, the interior is 1000x better. Nice, deep gloss in the yellow paint, too.
