$500 all up.

Cut and polish

Swirl removal

Stone chip touchups

Over buff mark removal

Full interior vacuum and window clean

It looks like a million bucks now. All the faded blemishes in some places are completely gone now. Paint looks deep and smoother than a baby's ass.

That photo was taken with my pocket point and click. It doesn't do any justification. You have to see it in person to really appreciate how well it's come up.

Where are you taking your car to get tinted? I had mine removed when I got a blueslip because it was too dark, so that's probably next on the to do list.

I went to tint-a-car in Flinders St. and it was only $80 to get it removed. The guy that served me there owns a R32 GTR V-spec. Top bloke and everyone I talked to there knew what they were talking about.

They quoted me about $380 for a full new tint. They recommended I get the "Formula 1" tint which would look better than the 'darkest legal' tint (looks lest filmy).

Taking it to Koolatint down Bomaderry, got quoted $250 plus a little more for removal of old "tint" if you can call it that from the rear window. (eg. another 20 or so, I think). Been highly recommended to me by other people down that way.

I spoke to SolarShade in Albion Park rail, they said $260 for tint with 10 year warranty, or $340 I think it was with lifetime.

Told ya he does a great job

+1000 internetz for Tristan! :P

Here are some more photos taken just before sunset at Port Kembla beach. No matter what angle I did it at, shots turned out a bit glarish lol.

For sure. I live in upper Berkeley so yeah Port is only a few minutes drive away. What about you?

Are you going on the Kirrawee to Austinmer cruise this Sunday?

    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
    • Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛
    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
