Amazing job! Rep for you!

INSURANCE101 · 08-09-2009, 11:28 PM

extravagant work. and that carnuba wax is pretty expensive. how did that gtr's paint get soo bad? another question if you don't mind, can you recomend a cheaper carnuba based wax?

thank you, and I will study this post every time i wash my baby.

That's what happens when your not carful washing your car. Victoria concours wax is as good as any wax available and is not expensive. Check them out at Victoriawax.com.

Wow - thanks for this inspirational thread.

kdo2milger · 08-10-2009, 04:23 PM

That is Amazing!!!

and nice writeup and even better pictures!

I know I should do this level of detailing myself, but if I were to have it done, what would something like this cost on the 370z?

FricFrac · 08-10-2009, 04:38 PM

I was just going to ask the same thing - how much would it cost to get the GT-R done like that? It seems extremely labour intensive....

chris410 · 08-10-2009, 05:26 PM

WOW...great write-up and great work! You put a lot of detailing shops to shame!

I think your user name should be detail Sensei. Wished you lived closer I'd pay big money for your skill

IDZRVIT · 08-10-2009, 05:46 PM

As the Brits would say, "BRILLIANT!" BZ for a job extremely well done.

Crash · 08-10-2009, 05:53 PM

WOW! It looks showroom again! How much does that kind of work usually cost? (I'm thinking about doing it for my car.)

FricFrac · 08-12-2009, 11:47 AM

No response - must be really expensive
