    Hi everyone,

    This car was done back in March, but I've just found the memory card containing these shots. I did a wash, engine detail, vacuum, and seal. It was a very well kept car, and lady driven so I had no problem worrying about the finish, the mileage in 5 years was lower than people have in 1 year.

    I only have the engine pics in decent quality, so enjoy an engine detail.

    Nice job on the motor..I must confess, I really don't care much about doing engines..nobody except the mechanic ever sees it, so who cares other than when it's time to sell it??

    Heh, I find that it reminds the owner of what the car looked like when it was close to new, and for some people it gives people a little pride when they open their hood. Heh come on Richy, it's a Value Added service :) Everyone wins!

    Aaron..I'm not saying it's a waste of time. Most guys on here do it. I ask all my customers if they want it and only 2 have ever said yes. I agree it does look nice and will do mine to the 9's when it's time to flip it.

    Amazing job!

    I have the exact same car and today I was checking the oil and stuff when I realized how dirty it was. I would love to see it as clean as the one on the photoes. Could you give me some tips on which parts you had covered and how exactly you achieved that effect.

    Many thanks in advance!
