we are in the same GB for this, so feel free to contact either of us
BTW, I'd like to know also why you went with polish/wax instead of buffing/wax

my car is in pretty bad condition lol
Buffing and polishing are the same exact thing . You "buff" the "polish" in to the paint to remove the swirls

The "details" (no pun intended) are getting ironed out as we speak, I (or Eric or Ken) will let you know when pricing structure and dates are set in stone. If you would like to have it done a different time, we can talk about that as well .

No kidding right? I mean the before and after are pretty drastic. I have a feeling I'll be needing to find a good detail shop in a few months myself. Obsidian is so hard to keep pretty

all i can say is wow. if $200 is cheap, your job must be more than doubled. i never knew professional detailing was so expense (probably because i have never had a luxury vehicle before) time to save some money. i look to get one in the spring/summer of next year. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

You have any hook-ups in the San Antonio area? My Obsidian IS has a lot of tiny scratches on the hood/trunk =\
