So who has been holding out on a detail, waiting for a deal?

Soooo, George from Detailed Image (a forum sponsor) is going to be hitting up the GTA sometime soon, and while he is here we would like to do a pretty thorough detail on some e90post car(s). We'd ideally like to set something up where we have a car that is in "rough-ish" shape to do a full correction on, top to bottom, inside, outside, alternate dimensions of detailing, all of that. Lots of pictures, perhaps some models (PushingTin?). So, who is interested? It'd be later in June. I just want to see if there is interested and go from there. It's likely we'll pick one or two cars. And yes, it will be a significant savings over my regular price, plus you'll have two experienced detailers working on your car. Odds are it'll pop out of my garage an Aston.

Actually I have another car (Audi) that is in worse shape, so if you want to test out some stuff on that car instead, that works too...

Ah good, I was hoping there would be interest. I'll let this ride for a day or two and then George and I can figure out exactly which car(s) we will have time for. Kelvin - odds are we'll make a point of getting you in since you had already scheduled with me. Keep em coming guys.

Let me talk to George on the Audi, I think he wanted to focus on cars from forums he sponsors, which I can understand.

1) only been waxed once in 2 years
2) has 110,000km of wear and tear

I'm In!

Hi Kevin,

I'm in. A new 335i Black Sapphire Coupe being trucked or railed in from Calgary surely would be in need for some TLC . Should be in in 2 wks, ideal timing.

Monaco Blue, has many swirls especially around wheel wells, rear deck and hood. Not to mention some amateur touch ups. Its an 06 E90 so she's been around the block a few times. The colour shows any and all imperfections but looks great if in good shape and especially with good light.

Ok... I'll beg if you want.

No begging required. I think we have enough people now. Sounds like some good cars. Not sure about vomit though, haha.

I'll let you guys know as soon as I talk to George what we're going to do. Thanks fellas.

So I guess I owe you one!

I'll update the thread as soon as I hear back from George. Maybe if I can convince him to stick around for a few days we'll just do all the e90post cars.

Now you're talking!

I know you detailed mine in April but with all the rain, bugs and frogs on the road at night mine isn't looking so healthy. Add another couple fine scratches and a shoe mark courtesy of some BMW 'fan' and we might have a winner! Plus I got some white specks on the front from dunno where that I can't get off.

Hey Kevin, remember my wife's '02 Acura EL in black with more scratches than Borat has body hair. That'd be a good example....the Acura that is.
