Black RX-8 paint correction and detail
Black RX-8 paint correction and detail
Back story - The nose was repainted about two years ago to get rid of stone chips, and the trunk was repainted after the spoiler and badge holes were shaved. It looks like someone tried to buff them too early as there were tons of hazy, 3-D swirls on the top of the nose and trunk lid.
The car still has a lot of sandblasting to the paint all over the front end that obviously would need to be resprayed.
