i\'m back in black (pics inside)

hi all,
i finally got back into a Viper... "upgraded" from a Gen1 to a Gen2 GTS... a 1999 black GTS. As soon as I got it, Chuck Tator helped me to install Dave's big brake upgrade (amazing upgrade!!), corsa + randomtech metal honeycomb hiflow cats, smooth tubes/filters, and Eibachs (in preparation for my 19" wheels coming soon... stay tuned for more pics). I also spent the entire weekend giving her an extensive detail. Paintwork wasn't in great shape, but for my first time, i think i did a pretty good job!! Pinnacle XMT#3 (swirl remover) followed by Pinnacle XMT#1 (mild swirl remover/polish), 3M Imperial hand glaze, Pinnacle paintwork lotion, Zaino Z2+ZFX (with Pinnacle Crystal Mist between coats), and Pinnacle Souveran (also with crystal mist between coats). she looks shiny and runs well!!)

Very nice, and the set up sounds great.

Have fun with her.

Looks great! With the detailing did you do it all by hand or use a buffer?
