Everybody has their own taste. But I always get glowing compliments on my Ruby interior, it's classy & very sporty at the same time. But if you're conservative, stick with all charcoal. FYI, the merlot used in the 211 E55 does not look like Ruby. It's a kind of plum pinkish wine color, and is a little lighter than Ruby. The Berry Red used in the SL is a bright red and quite flashy.

I paid $900 for my service. He spent 18 hours on the paint and sealed it with CQuartz, which should last me about 2 years if I keep it clean. He also did a lot of other things for me. Who knows how much it added to my resale price. It looks absolutely phenomenal, especially right after sunset.

www.oakesdetail.com. I couldn't recommend any higher.

Spend 3-400 to get a buffer (porter cable 7424 orbital or a rotary if you got the skill) and the polishes/glazes/wax/towels/etc. and do it yourself. Theres a small learning curve but detailing/paint correction is easy once you get the hang. A paint thickness guage and some lamps help but are not necessary. Save yourself alot of coin and have your **** always looking crisp, not to mention the pride of DIY.

On that note, Denroll-car looks awesome esp the before/after!
