I got a call late 2011 from a customer asking for some help with this Porsche Boxter, after a quick chat it was decided that an enhancement was the way to go, deposit taken, car booked in......cancellation!
15 months later I get to work on the car !!
I started in the usual way, trying to get some pictures of the car before work started.

, I have to say that I just love working on Porsche, I find them a dream to work on, lovely quality paint, the results on this one were achieved using 3M yellow pad with Extra fine and 3M blue with Ultrafina, having not used the 3M stuff for a while I'd forgotten how good it is!! time for some pics indoors. note the sneaky Dodo logo in some of the shots!
