Default Dry ice blasting the Cuda

I brought my Cuda in to get dry ice blasted. I was not expecting a great job since it was really undercoated, but it turned out amazing. The guy did spend 4 days on it. Thanks to Ron at Dry ice autos. He was really great to work with

Ron does a nice job! He did the underside of my Rallye 350 in January.
