$14,000 Project Maserati Quattroporte Gets Budget Cosmetic Overhaul!

[@NovaResource]

The silver wheels look so much better. Excellent decision.

[@edwardestrella3872]

What an amazing transformation by simply having the wheels redone in silver and removing the tint...congrats Nick, you have an amazing car and I love the blue color it simply stands out beautifully, can't wait to see the rest of the transformation!!!

[@willmtaylor]

I’m loving this series as the addition to the channel. Wholesome, helpful, no extra unnecessary production garbage. Look forward to the next episode.

The world needs more Nick.

Black wheels are such dog shit. Great call on silver.

[@blast_baja_]

I’d all but forgotten how classy these cars could look when they were new and well taken care of. That blue is just gorgeous, especially with the silver wheels.

[@colinbeckstrand2612]

Super fun! Love the affirmation you give to your kids as they are washing the car!

Amazing! Must do a few cosmetic upgrades to mine. Love these cars.

Bro named his kid after a Kia minivan

[@phattiger1506]

I saw this before I watched it, and given the Sedona wasn't a name used here in Australia, I was thinking "he named his kid Carnival"?

[@RC-wt7fr]

@@phattiger1506 We had the Sedona nameplate in North America until 2021 and then it changed over to Carnival.

[@michaellopour7409]

Not discounting this could 100% be a joke, but the minivan is named after a small Arizona town. You should google photos or visit if you can. Pretty sure he’s said he used to live in AZ?

I WANT TO SEE THE CLEAR REPAIR!

[@ihatekpeng]

Pour boiling water on the PPF next time to loosen it up before taking off, or you risk doing exactly what you did...ripping up clear coat.

[@MrAltairantares]

Can't believe he's removing the patina. Ruining the value! :P

[@tortillacats]

Patina? The terrible black wheels with curb rash? The aftermarket PPF? What patina is there to preserve on a 10 year old car?

[@hashbrownsforhamster]

Great work, Nick ... Fishbooooooowl! Ready for that professional C&B photoshoot!

[@eddiefara]

such a simple change on paper but boy what a difference it made in the flesh. Instantly probably doubled its value. Went from crass to class real quick

[@elnyoutube123]

I thought it looked so cheap when i first saw the black wheels. Looked like he bought it from a drug dealer on marketplace 😂

[@timbarito5586]

silver wheels!! yes

[@ΑΠΟΣΤΟΛΟΣΧΑΤΖΗΣΤΑΥΡΟΥ]

YES! Love the silver wheels! Black wheels only work on ugly wheels because they hide their ugliness, such beautiful wheel design must be shown as well as possible, keep up the good work!

[@GM-kj6sb]

It looks GORGEOUS with the with redone and detailed

[@GM-kj6sb]

I want it now

[@admranger]

Put the polisher cord over your shoulder please. You're just bunging up the door paint when you bang the cord against it.

[@Techjunkiero]

So clean and back to stock. What a difference how those wheels look in silver, such a classy design with the mudflaps. Definitely much much better and that’s something I’d have done too.

[@rileygally2967]

Looks infinitely better. I do wish that Nick would’ve gone over a bit more of the process for the wheel color change and clear coat fix

[@805NAVE]

Silver wheels took this car from Escondido neighborhood look to a Rancho Santa Fe original owner look 🤣😍

[@NickRoshon]

lolol

[@Austin_Wingfield]

I hope yall keep this series up. It's pretty cool

[@ravichjakkaratropart5083]

09-13 Quattroporte sport GTS in black or grey with silver wheels and red brake caliper is my dream sedan.

[@kevinbarry71]

Wonderful transformation; I also despise black wheels. Silver looks wonderful. And people don't seem to understand how awful old tires can feel even if they look fine

[@That_slow_S4]

Hopefully he removed the wax after buffing before putting the emblem on. If not they have tendancy of not sticking for long, not all the time but it is a common issue.

[@justInTimePcGamer]

Great color

[@RedLP5000S]

The car is gorgeous now. Great foresight on the changes.

[@evan.c43]

The blue and silver looks so much better

[@OvlovC70]

Black wheels look terrible on absolutely everything, and this was no exception… the refresh looks amazing!!

[@DJL78]

Looking great!

[@jessetrupiano]

I’m loving the transformation! Aluminum black rims never look good and are a just a fad. All these companies are trying to appeal to teenagers with plasti-dip. I’d like to know more details about how the hood clear coat was repaired this time! I wouldn’t feel bad about it coming off with the shield. It was probably ready to start chipping off anyways. As a side note, I always have to play these videos with Nick at 1.25 or 1.5 speed. He talks so slow!!

[@saablazer]

Thank you for redoing the wheels. I hate black wheels. Wheels should pop, not hide.

[@charlieryan1736]

Beautiful restoration 🇮🇹👌🏻

How was the clear coat hood mishap get fixed and turn out

[@matthewgrear3260]

I’m a black wheel fan so I would have kept that. But also if you went dark grey that looks cool too

[@DavidLeeKersey]

Wouldn't isopropyl alcohol help soften the adhesive to making removal of PPF easier?

[@aaronsimpson.5259]

Liked the black wheels and tint better.

[@soloyoujo]

How do they fix the missing clear coat? Do they just clear coat over it?

[@NickRoshon]

Yeah, body shop resprayed the whole hood basically.

[@soloyoujo]

@@NickRoshon nice. I guess they have to sand it first, so it must be a big of a job. Sick car, btw.

[@NickRoshon]

@@soloyoujo the hood was about $700 which wasn't terrible, although still annoying as it was totally avoidable if I had just slowed down and removed the PPF with a little more diligence. Live and learn!

Quick note Nick: when looking at the camera, glance away every few seconds, as you would when talking to a human being. Imagine you're talking to a person, not a camera. Looking straight into for 60 seconds straight is unnatural.

Looked better with black wheels and would have least kept the back windows tinted.

Tinted windows almost always look garbage. Thank you for undoing that.

[@oilman930]

Three are three things in life that you should never skimp on. 1 is a bedroom mattress, 2 is shoes and number 3 is tyres. If I was buying this car I would want some money taken off the price because I wouldn’t drive the with those tyres on it. It’s a Maserati. You don’t skimp out on tyres for it. You went cheap and failed.

[@ST-vb9sj]

lol, get a load of this guy

[@Afraz_9n3]

125 is hardly ridiculously cheap for a set of tyres. You can get a number of decent brands for that much including pirelli Dunlop and continental. And that's just from going online on a reg based checker which is always more expensive than your local tyre shop. Sure they're not Michelin pilot sport 4 S but they don't need to be 😂

[@ruvindap66]

Dude. Tires are the most important thing you can upgrade on car that has working brakes and engine. NO TUXMAT?? YOU SWINE

Quattroporte is German for 4 wheels, because it has 4 wheels
