2008 Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster Restoration by Richie`s Custom Detailing and Auto Concierge.



I flew Bob out to work with me on a few cars. The day before he was scheduled to leave I got the call to restore the appearance on this 2008 Murcielago LP 640 Roadster.



So I changed Bob`s ticket and extended his stay.



Bob was very instrumental in getting this car done as it was going to be shipped out of state and the deadline was tight.



Total time spent 60+ hours collectively.



Upon initial inspection it was easy to see how severely this car had been savaged.



Front end and rockers were wrapped as well.



As it was delivered.

Great work guys. It must be nice to bring Bob in to help, as you`ll never need to recheck his work. Two top notch detailers you both are!

Away put your weapon, I mean you no harm. LOL



Someone obviously has more money than sense to let a gorgeous car like that get neglected so badly. I bet they didn`t even garage it.



Nice job turning a 2008 that looked like a 1998 into the jewel it truly is.

I can only hope to be as good as you two are. My dream is to be able to look at any car, any condition and know I can make it look brand new again.
