Cquartz and detail

Picked her up from Xclusive Auto Works in Massapequa on Long Island last night. Will did a superb job. Although the car is new and looked great going in, the end result of cquartz gloss factor from top to bottom (glass, paint, wheels) really makes the car pop.

Will charged $600 for paint only, but my car didn't require much paint correction. If paint correction is required(removing swirls, etc) that could run an additional $300-400. I was lucky that I brought it in w only 250 miles on the clock, and even then there were swirls on the plastic door mouldings from dealer prep.
Like mentioned, it could be done by yourself, but the paint needs to be the way you're gonna want it to look prior to sealing it w cquartz.

Those are actually Stuttgart replica rims. They're 20" and same width, staggered, same as the 469's that came on the X. The Conti dws are the same size as the stock Dunlop Maxx sport.

The gathering I was referring to us at Floyd Bennett Field. It looks like over 50+ should be attending and will be both Saturday and Sunday 9a-11 or so. I'll probably go both days lol.
