Pics of my car freshly buffed
These pictures are of my car after wetsanding and the first buffing with 3M perfect-it compound. It still has 3M Finesse it polish, 3M foam pad and glaze, and a hand polish to go. Can't wait to have it done. Thought you guys might want to see the progress.

Yes, I repainted it, and no, that's not black. That's the metallic green from 92, it's just that dark in pictures.

fredo92,
I send props to you man!! Looks GREAT so far. I admire what you're doing. Due to my involvement with Progressive Insurance in the totalling of a '93 Buick Century I had (which is on my web site) I really enjoyed your comment:
"But, when you walk into an agent's office with a significant amount of modification reciepts, they tend to change their minds about it."
I know what getting an F-Body repaired is like. Mine had a big one (that was my fault and I only had liability insurance, so I had to fix it all out of my pocket).... but it's back on the road (check my site for any info), here's a pic from the accident:
Keep up the good work on your ride!!
