Looks awesome! Bet you're excited Get it to a detailer for paint correction though as that's some serious orange peel on those doors. Has it been repaired/replaced? Black looks amazing when it's cut, corrected and polished! Again, awesome and welcome to the family.

Thanks Got the Renntech lowering module - allows me to set whatever heights I want as long as the car can handle it!haha Super good system, pita to install though as the PASM box is under the rear drivers tail light on the inside/trunk area. I've now got the USB coming out of the secret compartment in the trunk for easy access to adjusting the heights.

I assume you're talking about my photo?
no damage has occurred as far as I know. I do see some orange peel, but I'm not sure how abnormal it is really, since I've seen similar orange peel on brand new cars.
There is paint protection film on the doors by the wheels.. not sure if you're seeing that.

I see 😁 I meant no offense by the way! It's a gorgeous car and Panameras are always amazing in black, especially with the black trim option and windows.

no offense taken what so ever. I just wanted to better understand what you're referring to. Please do explain more, if you feel like doing so.

I am hoping to see the car for the first time within a week. So anxious..

Sure thing

Most cars come from factort with some level of orange peel and it jist looks like you have mpre than typical in the photo. I am a finickety detailer by hobby though so always go for those glossy finishes 😁

A detailer can level orange peel, remove scratches etc but orange peel removal is a pro job via wet sanding/buffing, etc. Examples:


Before/after

Corrected paint

So each to their own of course and I am glad I didnt cause offense! Like I said - its an awesome color combo and Im sure youll be happy either way 😁

Sure, I see the orange peel in the photo. I'm just not sure if it's really more than what would be normal from to factory.

Nice job, btw

Lol well they arent my photos, just examples. Mine had a lot of orange peel but is GT silver so a lot harder to see but it made a significant difference after wet sanding and paint correction.



Welcome to the ownership club again buddy 😊

(Oh an example of my paint correction on my other black car lol)
