    Remember we are not shaming our clients with these photo's, rather helping others understand what detailing is all about!

    What I would not give for some sunshine!! I had like a 10 minute window to snap these before it started raining..again.! When client arrived, it was lightly raining and said we are not even taking it home, not down that muddy road!! They were shocked with the results, took it to a couple big name dealers, and got well over Kelly Blue Book value for it and were extremely pleased!! Dealer said it looked amazing, so client gave him my card!! Cool!
    Once again, this proves that having it detailed PRIOR to even going to a dealer or shopping is SO worth the investment. Client easily made three times the investment back!! Detail on brothers and sisters, go chase,pursue and run down that dream!!
