Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

That insta account isn't actually 1/2 bad even. I have seen far more cringe... but gotta love them gas station shots. He's a good kid, has decent skill with a camera. Not too bright though, he offered to buy my Apex wheels "If I got them repaired". https://i.postimg.cc/4Y3zzWHZ/PXL-202405...

There's a kid local to me with a silver 1LE. He has every square inch PPF'd.
It's his car, and he's gram-famous. To each their own.

I'm just protecting the items facing the elements for when dude bro decides to load gravel on a trailer and drive down the interstate at 80 with it.

Didn't Tar have the front of his :gorf: done and it looked flawless after a ton of miles? Other than a few initial issues. Some folded areas got dirt, and I just razor'd them off, I had zero issues on the Camaro for 1.5 years. It held up to a pressure washer and did wonders to repel bugs and dirt.

Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

Sometimes I wonder why PPF is all the sudden a thing. Cars haven’t had it for 100 years and now it’s all about those stickers applied by a 18 year old vape artist that look like absolute shit about 5 years in… If you keep it that long. And they cost 4 Michelin star dinners for 2 … Every car I've ha...

Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

I did ppf on the M3 and there are several specks of dust underneath it. Found 3 more yesterday but I don't really see it on the paint unless I'm detailing the car. It's more noticeable on the carbon roof though. PPF guy had to do the roof and both fenders twice because of mistakes. Smaller pieces l...

All I did was look at a photo, I figured if it was a POS mechanically I'd be told so.
