Yes, we deff. have some "know it alls" that really don't know it all. I'll tell you what YOU CANNOT GET RID OF SWIRLS AND SCRATCHES BY HAND P E R I O D.

I used to be that way myself... and you just simply cannot do it! rutter I already got into this with you... Your car doesn't look that good... sure you made it SHINEY but like I have said before SHINEY doesn't mean it's smooth and clean to the touch, nor have you gotten all the swirls out...

Any STU where are the pics of the STi hommie!

There are only 2 maybe 3 on this site that would have any chance of matching skills side by side with me..... They are ChrisAult, HatrickStu, and Area47 none of which are you!

I don't flame I just state facts, you posted pictures and frankly they didn't look good, people say my car doesn't look good, I just laugh... You turned this into what it is now!


STuie... looks good as always mayne!

i have a feeling that if mdub, area, ault, and myself were to have our cars next to each other the world would probably tear itself apart and the universe would suck itself into a giant black hole.
