    I got this job from when I did a BMW 335i 2 weeks ago. This 350Z is his uncle's and at first when he heard his nephew paying $280 for a carwash, he went crazy. Haha, but then he saw the results and he wanted his done the same way but without swirl removal. He was VERY HAPPY with the results. He won't let anyone else touch it besides me. ;)

    haha, good job in re-using the clay as a cell phone holder.

    Hmm, silver cars r the least satisfying to detail IMO.
    It just doesn't shine like black.

    But still, great job guys!
