My pulley install/removing kit stripped in the threads so I could'nt get it back on. I just ordered another kit to put it back on and I am adding a chrome resivoir before I put it back on b/c its a PITA to take and remove the pulley.

I love how that paintjob reflects off of all the crome and polished parts. Top notch work my man.

The only way to really learn how to do that stuff is get out there and try it. Books, videos, and people wont be able to make you paint or polish perfectly... You just have to keep practicing.

My bad I never responded to this...You are exactly right Zach
You can read all you want but the exp comes with hands on trial and error. You can not judge distance, pressure, fanning motions, buffing methods unless you try it.

It's using a flash on my camera that messes it all up. I like taking daylight pics better.

JR ... wow ... a master of the paint and bling bling! hahaha Seriously, that's something to be proud of. Looks awesome and must perform just as well. Congrats on making something SO nice. I'd like to see one of those daylight pics. Do you actually drive the car? Seriously? I would be so afraid of something happening to it! Well, nice work!!!!

Yes it's a daily driver, well grocery go getr. I work from home and the only places I go are to the track and store. I park way the hell out where most people are to lazy to walk from and always return with some idiot parked next to me with 20 spaces on both sides of us. Thanks for the compliment.

that reminded me of that comercial where the guy parks way out, and some beater POS goes past it, backs up, parks 2" from his car, then opens the door into it. Sad thing is... its totally true
