Default Car Detail

Hey guys, i guess this could be a subie related topic as well, so i put it in here.. anyway, i was wondering if there was any place that i could get a GOOD exterior car detailing. I dont know what happend, but it looks like i drove through a spot where there was a little paint in the air (or on the road where they had just painted the lines) so naturally the car has a little paint spackle on the hood and front bumper. I would like to get that off and have the exterior of the car detailed at the same time. Mike H and Tyson thought it would the paint would be reasonably easy for the detail shop to get off.

anyway, any suggestions? and about how much would it cost you think?

thanks
mike

I've heard the guy that works at Sean's (Dr. Funk's) work is good. At the Winners Corner on Huffaker and S. Virginia..Other than that, there's not a lot of detailers that I've heard about.

Bobby does great work. He's on the board as Bob Danger. He is the manager of the detail department at the Subaru dealership in Carson.

It will be worth the drive.

hmm.. well i'll go down to the winners corner detail tomorrow.. and see how much it costs, i figure either way i go, it'll be ok as long as it's a "bigger" company such as subaru or chevron. Because if they mess it up, they'll insurance it... or so i think.. =(

i would go to the one in carson.. but i dont really have the time before i leave... and i really want to get things taken care of before i go home to hawaii

Well I hope you get it taken care of. By the way, I saw your car at Sted today and I must say it looks great!

If you want the best in town and don't mind spending a little coin go see Kurt at the Sport Haus. He leases a small garage in the back of the Sport Haus and does a phenom job on all of the high dollar cars in town. He did my buddy's RS6 and it was amazing.
