That ride was on life support, and you brought it back from the dead.
All your hard work certainly paid off. Very nicely done. :bow: Q: What did you use on the exterior trim? VRT? |
Yes VRT on the tires, and on the trim, 1Z einszett Gummi Pflege

I'm hoping he paid at least $500 for that cleaning/detailing work...

I'm estimating $1000 ..... :D

WOW that's an amazing job, even moreso considering how neglected it was! :wow: Great work you've got there :thumbup: I bet it could pass as CPO ;)

Now that was an extreme makeover. :thumbup:

That is simply amazing work Phil. I would have turned that car away and saved myself the headache but you certainly renewed it. Would you mind revealing how much that service cost the neglectful owner?
