Got a call from my sister this morning at 10am asking if I can clean out her car as she thinks she may have it sold. Said yes thinking I would have a day or two. She gets here at 11am and says her friend is coming at 12:30pm to look at it and to go to the bank with her. And she wants to leave for college from there. Thought it would be somewhat easy as I detailed it about a year ago...http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/14192-first-s-s-sisters-02-vw-beetle-lots-pics.html Yeah right, lol. Only had an hour so yes there is a lot wrong with it still.

How she dropped it off (said she had cleaned it out this time)...

Not sure if you can tell from the pics, but someone decided to punch or kick the airbag in, some smart people...

Yes you can call this a "hacked" detail, lol. It would never go out of my shop if it was a customers like this. A LOT is still wrong/dirty/paint lifeless but oh well...Im done.
 
I wouldnt call it a hacked job.. I woudl call it a "Sister is lucky you touched it in that condition, with the amount of time you had" job. LOL

Very nice turnaround in such a short amount of time!
 
You mean you didn't put a new wheel cover on there for her?

j/k of course. Good job on the car, especially with the amount of time.
 
Thanks guys!

I love doing interiors (hate polishing). Just wish it was a different car, as VW carpet sucks!

I've already bought enough this month for her, lol. Got her a new alternator, battery, and a lower front bumper piece. B/c somehow she managed to rip it off. I installed the bumper piece today. I told her I'd take it to my shop to paint it but she said no, her friend who's buying the car doesn't care, lol.

Nice interior clean up... I hate cleaning inside, prefer polishing.
 
great turn around in that amount of time...
I love how people who don't know what a clean car is will call something "cleaned" out.
