That is very impressive.

I am always interested in the extra details that you do that set you apart from the other detailers.

Anything you can pass on ??

The car looks stunning and your pics show this well.

Does he have a tear in the roof?? look in the 8th pic directly above the door shut line??

again pics

Thanks so much for the compliments guys, it means a lot to me. As for the "little details" I referred to, I just meant that I take the time to really get into the nooks and crannies that people don't clean usually. For instance, I clean the entire black plastic wheel well on every car I detail. All of the rubber trim around the doors is cleaned, and the painted surfaces you see when the car door is opened is also treated.

When I do S2000s, somoetimes I'll take out the seats (I carry around a rachet with 12mm and 14mm nuts with my detailing gear ) and vaccuum underneath them. I clean behind the gas door, around the trunk trim, etc. I'm a little obsessive compulsive in some ways and perfection in cleaning things is just one of them for me.

I have another Berlina coming up this week, along with an Infiniti FX. I'll post up some more pictures of those when I'm done in a thread, along with the Boxster and M coupe I did this past week

thanks for your explanation on the 'extra' details - glad to see that you are putting your OCD tendencies to good use.

Please post up your pics
