Got my G detailed today and Wow!!!

As I had mentioned in previous threads, my neighbour details (as more of a hobby than anything) so if you like what you see and you are in the K-W area let me know. He charged $150 to do a filtered wash, clay, polish, wax and anti-static finish. He even, first, wet sanded a half dozen scratches I had in the bumpers. Now I can't find a swirl or one scratch anywhere! It seriously looks far better than when I bought it from the dealer last fall. It's amazing what a good detailer can do.

Looks really good from what I can tell from the pics. I've learned that it's a much more accurate assessment of the job if you have pics before and after under a halogen lamp.

No way my G was anything like that since I do take good care of it. I just admittedly don't have the talent like some of you guys have with a PC and that is why I got a friend to do mine.
I can't wait to see how it turns out.

well done, looks great. Does he charge this for everyone. It's considerably cheaper then what most people charge for this type of work.

Just send him an email. He is aware that a couple people from this forum have expressed interest. He said he will be posting some of his work on Autogeek as well.

If you want to you can tell him that his neighbour mentioned him on G35driver.
