Nice, I have the same color on my Turbo S

 

What was the Red color you used, Might have to do the 4S in red lol Can you post a pic of the can

 

Nice! I like the HRE's too - are they 22's? Feel like a kid on Christmas Eve waiting for my wheels to come in.

Go for it! I'll take a pic of the can once I get home later this evening.

 

So over the past couple of weeks, I was able to get the paint correction done (25 hours of actual work time - beauty is pain lol), installed the new BMC air filter and added the "Panamera GTS" decals in black on both driver and passenger door. I tried to document before and after's of the paint, but I was having trouble with what I seen in person transferring over onto the camera. That, along with adding extra time to an already long job caused me to put down the camera for the most part. To come our the pics I did take..

Iron X doing it's job...





Here you can see a good before and after of the window trim.

 

 

I got such satisfaction out of doing this last part. It's something so simple but over looked by most. The black trim in the grill was extremely "ashy" and clearly never had any sort of coating applied to it. That would soon change. It went from ashy to a nice satin finish that will last 14-16 months before needing a new application.

Bravo Flo! Awesome work and attention to details.

 

Nice work! What did you use on the front grill?

 

Thank you!

I just purchased a 2013 GTS (dark blue metallic) a month ago. You journal is helping me decide what I would like to do to individualize/improve the vehicle.
So far I've changed out all the interior bulbs to LED (15 of them), and tinted the windows with Huper Optik 30%.
Looking forward to your future posts.

 

I'm glad I can be of some help. Sounds like you have a unique color for these cars - enjoy it!

 

I spot some other nice cars in your garage sir. Good for you with putting 25 hours in your paint correction. I wish I had the time.

 

 

Flo, I ordered the can of red, was there any special surface prep besides masking
