Haha thanks! Yeah all the white LC pads used are now permanently pink!

As always great work Jeff... The evo isn't painted single stage from the factory is it?

Thanks! Actually it is. Another Evo owner told me that red, white, and black for that year (and a couple other years) were all single stage.

Interesting. Didn't know that... I think Toyota has a few colors that are still single stage too... wonder why?

I'm in the Bay Area. But I did a detail trip to SoCal for several LS1tech members just a few months ago. I'm definitely up for another one if I can get enough people interested.

Ya a friend of mine had a red 2003 Evo the Red has a 1 stage paint hence no actual separate clear coat hence the "red buffer pads" But man what a save you did
