I woud say generally anything 10-15 hours is going to run most people $3-500. That is for an average/above average condition car. I did a 30hr job on an S65 and it was $1000...

Having said that, if you have a few days, some patience and feel like investing the 3-500 in supplies, you could come to the detailing and car care clinic we are going to put on at Larz Anderson. We will be paint correcting a 355 GTS

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!

It looks like the guy who did Denrolls car used the combination of the Megs 105/205 & orange pads. I see it on the shelf in the back in the pic below and to my suprise I see a porter cable? Looks good nevertheless!!

No, Just `Digital Tuning` ECU upgrade, cat removal and BMC F1 air filter but don't think filter will effect 100-200 . Don't even have pulley Yes its running faster than normal
