I've spent the last month getting the exterior in shape for light weekly driving in the Texas sun.
- Paint correction (swirl and scratch removal) - Partial paint protection film to keep the road rash away - Ceramic window tint - full limo on the hatch! - 2 coats of Rejex polymer on body, glass, and wheels - Car guys plastic restorer for the black trim and tires ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Wow, looks awesome! Let us know after 4-6 months how those products you used lasted.
No doubt the Z accelerates quicker and goes faster now!

Any chance you have any before pics? I also have a bright red 90 and will soon be starting on cleaning up the paint.

The Rejex is so slick .. it must be worth half a second at least
![]() Unfortunately I don't have any good closeup pictures of the paint before correction. The previous caretaker is a professional detailer and had applied Rejex as well, so it looked good and shiny from a distance but on closer inspection had a lot of swirls and small scratches in the clear coat from years of washing.

Ya mine is pretty rough. Lots of swirls and scratches ( big and small) and quite a few chips and some road rash with a few poorly touched up paint spots. I will have to get some pictures so I can do a before and after.
P.s your car does look really good. Hoping I can get mine the same. Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry
