  • Porsche 997 Turbo Fully detail by KC

    Thank you for your much awaited patience, and anticipated posting. I thank the Above for this opportunity for allowing me to detail this exotic! A Porsche 997 Turbo!! After going much obstacles & hurdles, finally this is the time to share with you.... the encounter....



    After this detail I went thru quite a bit of challenge & calamity, a week late had a L4 Slipped disc. (May 2011) My whole world collapsed, having to feel the worst torturer & feeling for not being able to carry my baby again! worst still is this my last detail?????

    During the first 2 weeks complete flat resting (& months of recuperation) makes me to think & perhaps to consider again meaning of life!
    Look what have I done to my back? anyway who cares what u have detail!

    My struggles of
    The Prize Vs the Price
    what if I turn vegetable,Although there are a few of of tears but many moments of fears"is that worth to risk ? (at the price of my life)??????"
