Not many pictures here as the car was in pretty nice shape with minimal defects. The customer was interested in getting the ultimate in protection for his car, so we decided on Opti Coat for the body and wheels, Opti Glass pro on all glass surfaces, and full front end clear bra. Also, a single stage correction was performed to take care of any light defects, and to punch up the gloss prior to the application of Opti Coat. The entire front end was covered with Venture Shield paint protection film including bumper, headlights, hood, fenders, A pillars, and mirrors. Free handing the kit allows a seamless install with film being wrapped around and under all edges.

The S550 looks amazing with HRE wheels. Great job detailing and coating this Mercedes Benz.
