  • 99 Dodge Viper GTS Restorative correction detail.

    This car belongs to a new client and is a referral from one of my existing clients.

    This Viper is highly modified making 800 RWHP

    Mods include: ported heads, cam Paxton Novi 2000 SC, headers and catback minus the cats.

    Parts of the car were resprayed such as the front bumper, clam shell and drivers door, needless to say the respray left a lot to be desired.

    The befores:













    Hood 50/50:







    Driver's side hood before:







    Roof before:



    Corrected:



    Passenger door before:



    Corrected:



    Passenger rear quarter before:



    Corrected:



    Condition of the paint under the hood grilles:





    Notice the hand sanding tracers.





    More defects:

    Driver's rear quarter:





    Rear filler panel;





    Deck lid:





    Afters:

      Great job.

      A few questions.

      What pads/compounds did you use? Also, how hard was the paint? And, how much different were the areas that had been resprayed...like hardness of clearcoat...etc..

The silver one demands nothing and it looks just fine. I think the black vehicle is taking advantage of me, and the silver car is more my style. We can go out for a drive without her makeup and she looks fine. If I want to take the black one out, it is three or four hours in the "bathroom" to get ready.

            Quite the turn around on the Viper - that's how black is supposed to look.

              Great job. You've definitely revived that paint.
