05 Ferrari F-430 Correction(Argento Nuremburbring)
 

Completed recently this vehicle was brought in to bring out the potential as it was in very nice shape for the first model year(usually not the case LOL).

As the car came in in, it was dirty and was very hard for the camera to capture any of the defects. This Ferrari was also devoid of the sanding scratches(just a few) that are everywhere in most cases.

During the wash, after a year in half after my knee surgery I am finally almost 100% again and can bend the legs as before(even though I am oldness for a detailer).

Car was beading pretty nicely so a thorough stripping of the LSP was in order.
