    Congrats Ken!. I may be interested in those black/red seats - please send a PM when the car arrives and you come up with a price. Also have a set of 2.7 Fabspeed headers if you need some.

    Hi Ken, I am in SoCal too. Where are you taking your car for the paint correction?

    I’m probably going to bring it to my buddy’s shop Corsa Motorsports in Huntington Beach since he has lifts and can do mechanical work. I like to take the car apart to get into hard to get to places so the lift is important. I’d also rather be there taking the parts off myself and putting them back on.

    However, the 95’s are single stage paint. We need to paint meter every spot and see if the detailer is comfortable with doing the work. That’s probably more important, so we’ll see. I’m open :).

    Sounds like a good plan. I should have done the same, would have saved me from taking my fuel door down to primer

    It will be interesting to see what this F1 will bring.
    Historically, they sell for about 20% less than the gated cars

    Hi Ken,

    If you can get me a good deal, I am down to bring my NSX in for a paint correction and to have a set of F355 challenge wheels for powder coating! :) I am in the PV area and maybe we should do a mini-meet with INTMD8... :)

    Does Corsa do clearbra? I need to get the nose of my silver GTB protected.

    Not sure about the deal part, but I can put you in touch with my buddy. Let me ask him and get back to you.

    Also, paint don't powdercoat!

    Yes they do. Most shops are capable, so not sure if you should travel to OC. However, I would look into a shop who does custom clear bra fitting vs pre-cut kits. You want the edges to wrap around as much as possible. I've seen pre-cut kits build up dirt around the edges. Rhino in Huntington Beach did my Scud about 5 years ago and they did a great job doing a custom fit for the front bumper, hood, and fenders.

    I would also advise applying a light coat of ceramic before the clear bra to insure easier removable if that time ever comes. I also recommend Suntek. Very clear. Less orange peel. I was very happy with the Suntek product.

    The pic I posted isn't my car, but those are Speedline 355 Challenge wheels. Just a lil preview of what's to come :)

    If you are referring to Speedline wheels, mine are already black (matte).

    There are lots of good detail/resto paint guys in OC. If your original plan doesn’t come together, classy car detailing in Costa Mesa does tons of single stage paint cars including my porsches. They have a real brick and mortar building and this is all they do.

    congrats on the purchase! I was tempted to bid, but you clearly know more than I do about these. Hopefully I’ll get to see it locally...
