07 Berlina s2ki wacko newb! :D
 

This is my personal 2007 Berlina S2K. About a month ago I let one the "top" detail shops with a guy who has "20 years experience" detail the car for me. Well, as you will see below he is anything BUT good! :banghead: The car was super hazy with holograms and buffer trails all throughout the car. So I had to take it to a professional, and fortunately for me...THAT WAS ME! :D This was my first time using the rotary with LC CCS pads and Menzerna line. Im still getting used to the products but it turned out pretty good i think!
