they were almost done on that one but i can take new images tonight I just put the cover on....
what i liked is that i did parked there and got the car from the same spot 6 hours later, nobody drove it, and he let me know this before.
Cost was 130 euros .

I am uploading some images Alan give me 15 mn as my connection is damn slow...there is a bit of white dust along some gasket but i saw them with the images otherwise really they tried to clean everything....i got a nice glossy image...

Looks great! I am dropping mine off tonight with a guy who has won some car shows for his detail skills. My cost is $160 for exterior detail wash/polish/wax, plus $20 for the engine bay.

Unfortunately, the dealer did not wash my car properly and it has swirl marks and a few small scratches in the clear coat. I am looking forward to getting these blemishes removed.

Cool Matt, I hope it turned out great for you too. I may have one small scratches in the clear coat too, but nothing on the front. I have now 24 000 km.
I like the Zaino leather odor it generates for the interior.

Check out Meguiars Tech Wax 2.0 spray or paste for the future. It will keep the shine and certainly make your car look as good as new.

Car looks awesome in the photos.
