Speaking of Opti-Coating BMWs, I`ve got a jet black E46 M3 convertible coming Thursday-Friday this week... want to join the party?

Would love to, but can only swing the weekend......:cry1:

I need someone again for a paint correction. However I have several constraints since I don`t like to lose use of my car on weekends, and my significant other doesn`t approve of detailing and won`t give me a lift back from your shop.

1) Must be done on week days

2) Must be within a 30 mile radius of South Beach.

Any volunteers?

Also has anyone heard of the quality of work by these individuals who i found searching this forum: LRD, 5StarDetailing in Weston, Shawn Sullivan?

Uhh, what? Your significant other would prefer you to trash your investment and throw money down the drain instead of keeping it properly maintained so it is worth a lot more later if/when you sell or trade it?

M, Its a shame you could not get it done in Atlanta by any of the 3 detailers you contacted.

My gosh, I can`t figure you out??

You`re now asking about if these people are any good:

After you`ve already gone out of your way to recommend them here prior (and also used his services too I believe?):

Feel free to tell me otherwise; but it seems like you make it a habit to 2nd guess yourself?

You also started a thread on another forum questioning yet another detailer`s prices that I guess you now aren`t doing business with it appears:

Estimate to polish and cquartz - Bimmerfest - BMW Forums

You`re either a tire kicker or have split personalities. Which is it?

I don`t know why anyone in their right mind would want to do work for you after all these shenanigans. I know I wouldn`t. Especially after this thread here: http://www.autopia.org/forum/southea...ml#post1469431

Dude,

Just follow the rainbow to the pot of gold and pony up to get this detail done. You should quit wasting peoples time. Pathetic.

**MirrorDetailing** · 01-08-2012, 11:59 PM

Batman75, I would have loved to help you, had you not been trying to negotiate me down so much on the best price you got out of all 3 of us. Its going to be very hard to find quality work for as cheap as your wanting. Plus, the last we talked you said your detailer was or could do the 2 layers of CQuartz(their personal supply) and a 2-Step Paint Correction for $600? Did that fall through on you?

Well that thread explains why he was trying to negotiate me down so much. That thread is in reference to me. I was the last quote he got after JC ---> Bryan ---> JC ---> Me.

**David Fermani** · 01-09-2012, 12:12 AM

I wonder if he did the same thing to the BMW saleperson?

**Batman75** · 01-09-2012, 02:38 AM

Wow you`re a very emotional lot. Isn`t life too short to get upset over a transaction that didn`t happen.

**Thomas Dekany** · 01-09-2012, 02:42 AM

You know it isn`t always "the other person" - sometimes it is you who is at fault.

You seem very cheap - now go and do what ever you do for a living and take only 1/3 of your normal fee. See how vicious you get.

Actually it happens to me a lot. It`s the way things are these days. It doesn`t bother me. You win some and lose some. Unless you operate in a non competitive industry, that is life.

**Thomas Dekany** · 01-09-2012, 04:49 AM

Well, I don`t know what YOU do for a living, but correcting paint at $15 an hour is not something the best would or should do. I guess around Autopia, top dogs "loose" by simply not taking the job. That should make sense to you by now as you seem to be hitting brick walls with your ideas about what the job should cost with you car.

In any case, good luck with the hack, I mean the detailer that is going to do the job for you.

Contacting other detailers for better pricing when you are "booked" with one detailer, could be the reason why that detailer terminated the transaction.
