The Defiant is getting her... - Twitchin Kitten - 02-10-2019
I'll show you once it is done at the end of the month. Appointment in 2 weeks for all kinds of fun stuff happening to her. Then time to ceramic coat for protection. Wish they could ceramic coat underneath too, damn brine on the roads is killer.
Had the chance to drive her last week because Monday & Tuesday were so warm. 70º Tuesday so we took a ride to Atlantic City to secure some things for the car show, which to my dismay was a waste of time. Why? Because my friend running the show should be down there NOW pushing for her show. There is BIG show and sale going on and they invited her to set up a table and push her show this weekend and she doesn't think it's important enough. Seriously. She has literally 14 cars and 1 vendor registered and if it weren't for me rallying the bikers Friday night, that's all she'll have.
Guess who's done done helping?

OY! So tomorrow is the scheduled "work" to be done on the car. Snow was predicted for today so the shop called me early and asked if I can get it up there before the storm starts this afternoon because they had a cancellation and can get her inside today for the work tomorrow. That was a plan I already had in motion. Go figure, once I got onto the parkway it started snowing very heavily. My tires have zero grip under 40ºF. It was a tricky 30 miles and by the time I got to my destination it was really bad. I got to the driveway and at 15 MPH I went in sideways while the antilock brakes were engaging. WHEEEEEE! Fun times.
I'll never get used to those stupid things. It freaks me the hell out feeling that in the pedal.

I split this thread if you're looking for the car convo.
Here is a little preview of the detailing that is happening. Vic put up a before and after of stage 1 clean and paint correction.

That's only stage 1. He's going to have it until Sunday. I can't believe a car that's only a year old can get so filthy.

OK here ya go...
Pear l7" stripes and a hologram on both rear quarter panels.
Had her detailed and ceramic coated after the stripes put on. OMG she's gorgeous. And I hadn't realized how loud she was until the video! (You'll have to click that to watch it) The pearl really pops when the right light hits it. I cannot express just how much this guy is worth every penny to get the car looking hot.
The first pic is filthy at the stripe shop. The rest are all in the detailer shop.
