    Overly excessive detail job...

    Background This particular detail was a labour of love - It's a car that I bought a few months back after chasing it for over a year. Around a year ago one of my customers and now good friend (Steve Kings from pcgb) were talking about cars after me completing a detail on his 993RSR. We got...


    Absolutely amazing. He used Zymöl Royale Estate Glaze too, that stuff is stooooopid expensive. That looks like a 98 or 99 M3 because of the Imolarot color, it looks especially good when it's that clean. Someday I hope to do something like this to my E30.

    Jesus, I thought someone was posting that "world's most expensive car wash" video again... lol.

    Pretty impressive! I would love to have a fraction of that detailing gear.

                  I wonder how much a detail like that cost.

                    That's what all our E30s deserve. Anyone else treat their E30s like that? I know for bimmerfest, mine gets some good TLC.

                    NICE find.

                        I did a very similar amount of work on a E28 524Td and I charged $600 dollars. I didnt use royal estate glaze of course though and I also don't have the overhead of a shop and employees yet though. I would say That job would be around 1,100 to 1,500.
