It will be very hard for his bumper to chip because Mikes a friend so I did not spray a normal clear coat like most people would do because there cheap. This is PPG's Ceramic Clear Coat. Its very scratch and chip resistant Its the only nano-technology clear coat and only used on the new Mercedes-Benz

 

Nice. He does great work it looks like.

 

Looking great!

 

yeah Corey hooked me up with that extra special clear coat of his! Can't wait until we do that "other color" and the whole car gets that same clear coat


Can't wait to get my hood pins put in this weekend! I'd do it myself but I can't wrap my mind around putting a dremel to my CF hood after Corey just painted it last weekend...

so I'll just let him do it

 

Mike I would love to cut a hole in your hood But I would hate to do it to mine! lol

 

gee you're making me feel SOOOOO much better about you holding a dremel to my hood this weekend

 

Here are some picture to show how bad the side skirts were. Had to build the corner my self so I could bolt it back on the car. It takes some work but I think they came out good


Sand it down and clean it for the new fiberglass

Build your shape with the new fiberglass

Sand it down and clean it for primer

Prime them, let them dry and sand and clean for paint

Spray the black and then clear coat

And your done and ready for the next project

 

Wow.. that's awesome.. I know it's something you do daily, but thanks for sharing.. very interesting.

 

ya, that step by step was pretty sweet, i like seeing how stuff comes together like that. great job on the front end and hood too. eyelids look mean.

 

nice

 

Corey is the man when it comes to body work! Thats why he's the only person I'll let touch my car for paint and body stuff. I had someone else doing that type of stuff for me but I found out he'd been using my lack of knowledge in that area to his advantage.
He used wood screws and bondo on my side skirts when he mounted them the first time.

Haven't had a problem with my sideskirts since giving them to Corey

 

AWESOME!

(and this aint no bs) But i would seriously consider taking the 1600 mile trip from Omaha to Maine just to get work like this done. ****, i traveled just under that far (1500 miles) just to GET my G, so its not beyond me to do that for some body work.

Btw, on a side note...


I love this pic! I love how in the background the Bat mobile is all under construction and stuff. Well done again PPG! Well friggin done!

 

yeah that is a sick pic of the batmobile in the R&D Dept. of Wayne Enterprises LOL

Corey is the Director of R&D at Wayne Enterprises! I got my own Morgan Freeman

 

^lol you two are killing me! I feel lucky because I gat to do what I love for a job, it never feels like work having fun with cars

 

well based on our talk yesterday you're gonna be having more fun this winter than you'll know what to do with when I drop the batmobile off for the winter LOL



yes people I'm dropping the car off to Corey for the WHOLE winter...
Hope you guys have REAL good marriages cuz pics of the car in spring will cause at least one divorce on this site
