Freshly detailed, claybar and wax and buffed(PICS)
1988 IROC-Z28 305 TBI auto.
Man, the paint looks great on my car I have to say! It was re-sprayed once in about 1990 under warranty due to clear coat peel. I just put the freshly powder coated 16x8 IROC's on it too before the detail with some new Falken tires 245/50/16. I picked up the rims fairly cheap with the original center caps, had them (rims) re-done in bavarian silver. Now to just get some IROC door decals in silver.
Changed the cars look entirely!

And after:
Had the engine detailed too

Amazing what a good detail can do. Those wheels look great, much better than the 15s
I've always preferred the 16's over the 15's they just fill the wheelwells out just right in my opinion....

Re: Freshly detailed, claybar and wax and buffed(PICS)
Thank you!
Oh yeah, I knew as soon as I bought this car, those 15's would have to go. Allot of people tried to get me to go bigger aftermarket IROC's, but I prefer the stock look myself.
They do, don't they! I am super happy with the wheels, and the results of the detail.
Now to just get those IROC decals back onto the doors

Looks good, but the instagram filters on the after pics kinda hide any depth the paint had to show, and enhance the highlights beyond normal. I'm sure it still looks great, just the wheels is a great improvement.
