Really ran out of time on this one. No interior pics, it was very clean though. This car took me about 8 hours. Being up until 2 am tired me out for this next car..

I didn't get any pictures of the next car. All three of these got an AIO package and two got the interior cleaned up. These were my first three customers and they were very pleased with the end result as was I.

Thanks for taking your time to look! :)
 
Very good work indeed. Always nice to see another of the younger members do it right as well. Especially the way I see most people in my age bracket care for cars.:props:
 
Looking good!

Thanks!

Thanks Ted! I rarely seen anyone my age care for their cars at all. :dunno: But it just makes me look good taking care of them the right way. :xyxthumbs:
 
Good work! D151 is a great product, and your work shows that! Good job!
