My god, what a gorgeous ride! Congrats man, this is definitely one slick looking vehicle.

I’ve never had carbon fiber jealousy before, but am feeling it now!

Hello - Waiting 48 hours for curing process for ceramic coat and will pick up on Monday , I am really impressed with the level of service from Vince Geppi at Aplus Autostyling. I can’t wait to see it in person.

Thanks
