    Had to post a link to this photo history of the extraordinary job done on my brothers DS.

    http://www.carcare.ie/forum/showthread.php?t=202

    Really meticulous work that made a beautiful car shine. The charge was very reasonable for the time and skill applied.

    We picked it up at the weekend and it looks fantastic.

    In fairness, I think a repaint is beyond the remit of most detailers. I'm amazed what he did with the scratches on the black. And, although you can't see it in the photos, the wheels are a funny colour - a very pale grey that's difficult to get a match.

    The wheels need to be blasted and powdercoated. Touch ups would be gone in a week as the lip is quite pronounced and I'm the world's worst parker.
