this shop is THE premier detaing shop in the south, the country imo. he details some of the most exensive cars in the world and his work is second to none. he is posting on Facebook a special of 125$ off the premier detail if he can get 4 or 5 buyers. if i was in fl. and had my 32 i would be first in line!! cheap? not by any stretch of the mind. worth it? EVERY PENNY!

Honestly, his prices don't look all that bad to me - I normally charge $300 - $400 just to polish the paint and I know several guys who charge a lot more than that. A truly good detailer can be very hard to find, so when you do locate one, spread the word!

 

mike i have followed this guys work for yrs. it wasn't the high end cars that won me over it was a honda that had a new paint job and a murderous detail job that scratched the paint for what i thought was beyond repair. the work he did was magical.
i truely wish i had my black 32 for him to do his magic on

 

See, now that I like - anybody can work on high end cars, it's really no big deal; paint is paint and some high end cars are actually extremely easy to work on. But of course it's much more impressive to show pictures of a Ferrari 458 Italia than a Honda Civic.

I was talking to a detailer last week at Barrett-Jackson in West Palm Beach, FL and he told me that he quoted the owner of a Ferrari 430 Scuderia $550 to buff out the paint, detail the engine bay and interior. The Ferrari owner said he already talked to a guy who would do it for $75. $75!!! So here's some hack who's going to be able to say he details high end cars - and some goof ball who's going to trust his quarter million dollar super car to a $75 hack. Some people are just nuts all around, you know?

I once had to explain to the owner of a 360 Modena why he got ripped off to the tune of $300 by a hack who just saw dollar signs because he was going to clean up a Ferrari. The car was a mess when I saw it, just two days after being detailed and it had been sitting in the garage the whole time! Near as I can tell, the guy just washed it and maybe threw on a coat of wax for that money, but in all honesty, I don't even think any wax was involved. Well, maybe a spray wax. I redid the car a week later for the same $300 (owner was the friend of a friend) and he said it almost looked like I'd repainted it when I was done, he was so shocked at the difference. And then he was really mad at the other guy!

 

i hope everyone can read this thread. this s2000 isn't the worst i have seen him detail but it represents what he can do. i love a black car done properly. he has a way with polish Presidential Detailed: 2002 Honda S2000 aka Black Nightmare! - Benzworld.org - Mercedes-Benz Discussion Forum
