Paint and convertible top restoration pics

Just got a detailing and top restoration done and I'm very happy with the results. In person the difference is amazing, the paint finish reflects like a mirror and shines like showroom condition. Here are a few photos.

And here's with the letters in place. Bad lighting but I'll try to take more on the weekend.
