Hi Guys,

Just had the Turbo Detailed over the weekend.

We had Andy's usual contact do the work, as he worked on the CSL a couple of times and was very happy.

This time had the leather all clean up.. its looking like new. All those Jean's marks are gone. Very Happy With it. Highly Recommend.

As for the outside, I never thought Grey would reflect well, but it looks amazing!

What do you guys think about changing the rear light clusters to the all Red ones...?

Sorry about the pictures.. only had my little camera, as the SLR battery was flat.

For the first time.. seem to almost have 50/50 split.... on the lights.

The all Red ones are OEM, just an option so very rare on older cars.

Carrera GT has all Red on the rear...? Food for thought....? ;-)

Great detail :cool: car looks superb.

On a Red or Silver car i'd go for the optional Red Rear Lights, however i'd personally leave them OEM on darker colours as it adds a little contract to the rear.

Tough choice on the lights! Think i prefer the all red. Cars looking good though. Jeans stains is one of the reasons why i had to go black interior ;).

What a gorgeous car you have durgesh. I love it. The detailer has done a brilliant job. How much does he charge?

I say leave the lights as is, or maybe have tinter lay a strip of tint over the clear parts and see what that looks like.

Wheels, have been thinking about it. Since you put the idea in my head at Gaydon. If you see a set for sale anywhere let me know.

Rip's or Tears wont go from a detail however you can do "Connollising".. I did this on my 330, had someone stick gum on the seat, so it took a layer of. This totally fixed it, and all the leather came up looking new.

Just did a quick google search and found these guys.

Anywhere from £100-£500

I spent in the middle of that. All depends how much time you want them to spend on it. Layers of Wx etc. Type of Wax they use, and what you want down.

PM' Andy (IceCold), and He'll put you in touch.

My Friend's black 335d Sport is going to him next week. I will make sure to do some before and after pictures.
