Damn! Now that`s quite the recovery you pulled off, Rick!

If there was an automotive DSS (Dept. of Social Services), I would have called them! Can you say NEGLECT!!??

Great job!

Ohh, BTW, I hope you handed him a big bill. The owner deserves it!!

PhatHoodDetail- Ha,ha... You should see what goes on in the shop every day... :buffing: "A Day in the Life of a Detailer". This is only my full-time/part-time job too. I work a total of 70+ hours almost every week and have no life!

I`ll try to post up a couple more details when time allows... Thanks!

tom p.- Thanks a lot Tom!

OMG dude, your work is...well man...it`s so freakin AWESOME that i just want to come up there and bash your face in. I don`t even know how to compliment you b/c everything you touch turns into perfection, so i guess i`ll just have to resort to violence. Will you adopt me? hahahahaha

Nice work...again! That looks like it had to be one of the more difficult cars.

That car is beautiful!! I love reading these write ups, but every one of them makes me add another car to my wish list...

You guys REALLY need to get some sort of lift so you can do this a little longer.
