No kidding... those interior garage shots are amazing - gives a whole new meaning to "mirror" finish. Gives me something to aspire to, in my own personal detailing

Out of curiosity, what is typically charged for this level of thoroughness and quality of results?

Car looks unreal. In some of the pictures I totally thought he was taking a picture off a mirror.

That is like night and day. My question is who the hell let their E55 get all swirled up like that?? It looked like the took a microfiber, dropped it in the dirt and then proceeded to wipe their car off.
