Did some paint correction on my 06 G35x with 171k miles. Just had half the the car painted a few months ago (Ppg Paint according to bodyshop). Hard to believe this car has such high miles!

Car had minor wash scratches from my hand washing and light swirls. I did the entire car with Menzerna SF4500 polish on an Orange Lake County Medium Polishing Pad using my Porter Cable 7424xp. Finished down nicely without hazing.

I am by no means a paint correction expert. But I would say I have a decent skill set when it comes to it. Been doing it on my cars since 2007. Pleaze ignore the messy garage lol

Thanks! The Brembos were remanufactured from A1Cardone on Rockauto. I bought them and had them painted a mistubishi silver color with new Brembo decals at my bodyshop.

Great job man! It looks amazing. So you only bought Polish right? You didn't do any actually painting?

But half the car was also repainted at a bodyshop a few months ago.

I drove to Tampa and back from Orlando and ordered whiteline compression rod bushings. Today was a good day.

I was gonna say, those 20's look TINY! I like the look of them though, they fit perfectly. 18" GTR wheels look better than the 20s anyway.

I love when car parts come in even though it's for maintenance.
