Preview pics of Ferrari 16M correction
Another quality job completed by the "Mario Bros" lol, Ferrari makes a wonderful car but they should sub their paintwork to a German company...... seriously.
Almost new car with the Ferrari laundry list of problems such as ..... Pigtail sanding scratches, holograms and general awful new car paint condition.
Here is the initial pics of the car
Thorough wash/clay
Finish with heavy compound holograms
Decklid
The camera is not picking up the pigtail scratches...... but they are there and Ferrari or the dealership tried to buff them out and well lets just say...... they didn't
Look for the full write up soon as when completed the car has to stay put until the rain stops and I can get SUN pics which are mandatory in this case.

Isn't Ferrari paint supposed to look like that? 
Now a Ferrari with real showroom condition paint...THAT would be shocking!
The car is in good hands Bob, and I'm sure you'll finish it in the manner it deserves.

Ferrari 16M correction
Allright finished the job............... over 37 hours with some help by Tony Ito and Mark Zamzow, the car came out beautiful and I was pleased with the results of some VERY hard labor.
Holograms on rear driver fender
After a few initial hits with Megs 105
Some areas needed wet sanding to level the deep RIDS
Corrected
Blurry pic(sorry) of factory sanding scratches left just for me
Compounded and levelled
Small amount of factory sand scratches...... but "COME ON FERRARI SHAKE YOURSELF"!!! $325,000 dollar car delivered like this?
All better............
More evidence of the scene of the Paint finish crime
Corrected
Marring on the engine cover
Compounded & corrected
Sometimes the "view" from the office is very nice
Correcting the finish behind the seats
Tony Ito came by to help a little
Constructors championship F-1 badge
