Sorry for posting another writeup so soon, but we have a few more scheduled for soon and I had to get this thing posted ;) This vehicle had been painted last year, and we were waiting for an appropriate amount of time before tackling the paint, and better weather. Unfortunately, the owner did...

Pleased don't hate me for such a long thread! It actually reads thorough fairly quick :props: Perfection. The best value in the small car market today, the GTi has world class build quality and materials, engine and drivetrain, performance, and appearance. The 4-door version of the GTi add...

Thanks to a referral from a top detailer, we were contacted to refresh this nicely modified SL 55 AMG. Saphire Black can look stunning, but without proper clarity, the paint doesn't show in the sense that it should; deep reflective black with brilliant metallic flakes when seen with a direct...

1969 was a great year for cars, not good for pavement. Big V8s with tons of torque, relaxed LEOs, lots of attitude made for fun leisurely rides down the boulevard. Here we have two of the vehicles that dominated said cruises, beautifully restored to perfect condition. Both these vehicles were...

In each of our write-ups we try to cover something different, maybe new, to keep things interesting. This is also why the amount of write-ups we post lately is fewer. Here is a perfect case of what we could call a “typical” paint correction and vehicle “prep for sale” cleaning, but with the...

If it is snowing where you live AND you want a way to wash your car without swirls AND you don't want to do it in your garage (might be too full of other cars) AND, well, here is how we like to do it in our Michigan Winters :) Marc takes his GF's car to the quarter wash DIY bay with some good...

AutoLavish Presents A Sinister Maserati Grand Turismo Coated with C1 - Featuring Photography by Steven Pham The owner of this vehicle is someone we've done previous work for on other cars, but came to us this time to have his daily driver refreshed. With over 32k miles, I was surprised by the...

Most of our threads focus on the exterior of the vehicle. Paint correction, wheel cleaning, engine bays, etc. But interiors are important as well. Maybe less of a craft than paint correction but as much or more work, interior detailing can be quite involved. Here are some of the recent interiors...

I can't seem to find the button to edit my threads anymore. Is this just me or are others having this issue as well?

Early model Ford's likely did more to popularize automobiles than any other car that has ever been on the market. Henry Ford's Model T was a global hit and the Ford Motor Company was able to sell over 15 million of them worldwide. The car made such a name for itself that even today you can stop...

We have lots of cars to post up for you guys to read about, but not all can be "feature" cars due to factors such as time constraints, after photos not good enough, etc. For these car who deserve their mention we present: The Official AutoLavish On-Going Detail Thread This thread will get...

Hey guys, here is one of our latest details. I was out with a bad back, so Marc and Nate handled this one on their own. Not only was I bed stricken, I missed out on this awesome car! Oh well... Still, I'm sure you will enjoy the read and pictures! Despite being over 6 years old, the styling...

This Grand National was in great shape. Mostly original, mint interior and engine bay, nice wheels. It had been repainted from the doors back at some point in its life. The paint thickness was higher in these areas, and they looked better than the original, orange-peel-infested, factory paint...

We're really getting behind in write-ups, so here we go! You've seen her since the nice couple next door brought her home, and you've seen her over the years: more and more milers are on her but she always looks so beautiful. Now she's all grown up, but the downside of that is she's starting to...

The Cadillac CTS-V has grown in popularity and gained quite a following since it came out featuring an LS-series engine and 400hp in an entry luxury sedan. I'm personally a fan of not only the engine, but the comfortable interior and subtle exterior changes - the front grill is the hallmark of...

2006 Audi A8-L Brilliant Black Multi-Step + 1992 Porsche 911 Vert Amazon Green - by AutoLavish This gorgeous A8L was purchased recently with only 10k miles on the odometer. Before the sale, the vehicle was cleaned pretty good. The interior was immaculate. The new owner contacted us to perfect...

This is going to be a special write-up. Since this customer is in PR we thought it would be cool to do a write-up entirely in Spanish. We post on some island forums, so this might be interesting and easier to follow for some folks there, and hopefully they catch a few tips on how to maintain...

The Toyota Corolla GT-S, internally coded AE86, has become a legend in its own right. Light, nimble, reliable, has the correct drive layout, and nice styling (IMO) with a peppy engine make for a great little car. Of course, it owns you on Mount Akina (Japanese Anime reference), but thats another...

This was the 5th car in sequence we detailed on our Trip to Puerto Rico in December 2009, but we wanted to show it as soon as possible! First, we have to thank our bros at Predator Performance (predator-performance.com) for receiving us and letting us use the shop for detailing while in the...

AutoLavish Detailing Trip to Puerto Rico: Intro A few months ago we were able to schedule a small “Puerto Rico Tour” for December. We had various clients that expressed interest in our services, and after they put down deposits, things were set to go. We left out of Detroit Metro Airport when...
