Great!

I did not realize you ordered from the states. Did you order a case also? 73JPS and I have the same case in our pictures. Gene at Exotic says dust will ruin the car finish. He says a bit of paint and gloss comes off every time you wipe the car off from dust. After a while, you get a dull looking finish. Worth the extra bucks if this is true.

Also, if you wanted some specialty work done (I'm thinking of getting the Moonroof and spoiler done), give Gene a call. He's pretty amazing.

I just picked mine up from "Neo" and the detail on the models is great. I'm very impressed with the detail from Auto Art.

I mean they even went as far as putting a removable engine cover on. Very nice touch.

I didn't get the case with it bulldog. But i'm thinking about it. It would be weird if it started to lose colour. It's not like it's open to the rain snow etc like a regular car. Worst case senario..... give it a little wax ....lol

Worst case scenario could be giving it a wax job and having all of the paint come off with the wax. That would ruin your day.

Should give Gene a call at Exotic just to be sure. His number is (905)665-0404 .
