1987 Porsche Carrera. I'd detailed their Saturn Vue last fall after they accidentally drove over a can of paint. Now that the weather is warming up and this non-a/c is mostly going to be driven on the rare, cool, cloudy Dallas area summer day, he wanted it cleaned up.



The car has been repainted but the owner wasn't sure when, it had already been done prior to him purchasing it. Definitely on the hard side.

2001 Lexus IS300. Owner's parents bought the car new, now it is his college car. Sits outside 24/7 since its been his car. He's never had it detailed, doesn't believe his parents ever did either. Since he is still in college, he didn't want to go too nuts on it, so we decided that two steps on the paint would make a very noticeable improvement.



It had been a while since it had even been washed

Lost the sun after the first few pics, never stayed out long enough to focus on the car and take a picture for the rest of the pics I took.
