Jesus man, I think your car is safe to say it has the most modified interior. I'm not one for tan but with all the black accents and black ceiling, it looks pretty sweet. Good job!
And how do you detail for 12 HOURS!? I detailed mine for 3 hours one day and I was about to pass out. That was wash, vacuum and wipe down of the interior.

because he used a polisher w/compound and polish.....
spent 15 hrs on mine the first time i corrected the paint. Onlt took 6 hours the second time around (which was two years later ) because i kept my paint in good condition.
Its very rewarding when you look at your car after spending that much time on it. Good job OP, nice progress

Thanks for the kind words, all. REALLY satisfying now that it 'gleams'!
As my friend details below...
Yep, that's the killer. WASHING took forever. Wash, Bug Clean, Clay, Wash...THIS was the most exhausting part.
Exterior was SSR, Glaze, Polish, wax. All applied via machine w/ the exception of the wax.
THAT'S the killer. I am going to pick up the full PBW SSR 1 - SSR 3 sample kit and see how far we need to go. I want this paint FLAWLESS now that I actually know what I am doing. What SSR did you use?
