New pics of my V8V

[KarlFranz]

And here are a few more I just took. I can't decide which angle I like best. Maybe you folks can help.

Tbh KF they all look great - your pictures benefit greatly from the lack of a front plate

Thanx. One of the benefits of living in Florida. Although, even if it were required, I would still the plate off to do my shots.

The 2nd of the last batch is my favourite....looks so sinister and shark like.

That's funny, my friend and I were using those same two terms to describe that particular shot.

One thing those photos are not showing up KF is your ventureshield or its US equivalent.

Do you have it? Has it been edited out? Have you edited any blemishes? Is your paintwork really that good?

I don't have Ventureshield in my car, only the standard helicopter tape on the rear of the sills and leading edge of the rear wheel wells. I now have slightly over 20K miles on my car and, yes, the paint really does look that good—one of the benefits of having a garage to shield the car from sun and rain every day. We also have no snow to deal with and very good roads here. I have maybe 2 or 3 minuscule paint chips around 1mm in the front that have been filled with Dr. Chip (Chipex) but they don't show up in the pictures due to my lighting. Heck, they are bare noticeable to the naked eye.

I cannot even notice any swirls.

Do you use a Detailer or do you insist on doing all cleaning inhouse????

Thanx. I have never had my car detailed. I simply use my own 1-bucket method and apply a nice coat or two of Insulator Wax based on Mikey's recommendation when he was buying his V8VS

I've just directed a flock of pidgeons over to your address

I fear some sod beat you to it earlier today - I've actually banned Karen and the girls from putting out bird food due to the enormous proliferation of muck !!

Btw...YHM

It's certainly better Big T but not in the same league as KF's pictures above

There's not an angle that doesn't look good on those photos, absolutely stunning.

Reviving an old thread, here are a couple of recent pictures of my car that I thought you would enjoy.
