Detailers to Recommend?

Hi all,

I would like to know who you've used in the past to detail your cars and what your thoughts are with regards to the results Vs. $$$

I had a full detail done by BJ and was not at all impressed. First off they forgot to do it when requested with my HPFP recall. They left black interior touch up paint on the aluminum trim. Charged me for a cut polish without actually addressing several cuts. Then to make up for it all they gave me $50 off. Which was the early bird spring price and the price I should have paid. Nice. Never again.

Can anyone recommend a good place? I have a black 335i E93. Googled and a place named Pearls came up "specializing in black". I would like to get a good detail twice a year.

Who do you trust to baby your baby?

Thanks,

Kev

depending on how far u want to drive, autowerkes exclusive does extremely good work, the downside is the shop is all the way out in maple ridge.
i say the drive out there is worth it tho.

Hey guys,

I dont really drive my car anymore and seeing how much interest there is in someone buying the nice shoes of the car.

I have a set of:

Volk Racing TE37's
Mag Blue
19X9.5 +22 All round (Concave Face)
5X120
All stickers are in excellent condition
No curb, or scratches.
9.5/10 condition!

235/35-19 all round, Hankook Ventus V12's 80% life left

these are on my E92 Non-M, and I am lowered all the way on my KW V3's and I have zero rubbing issues (minor rear fender roll and 235 tires did the trick)

Asking Price would be around: $4500CDN--> $4200CDN obo + shipping fees for whole package.

IF seperated

Asking Prices would be:

$3700CDN --> $3500CDN ---> $3400CDN + shipping obo for the Wheels along with brand new Rays (blue) valve stems
$800CDN --> $700CDN + shipping obo for tires

Paypal: reggie@mwdesigntechnik.com ***send as gift or please add the 3% fee***

feel free to email me: reggiemah@gmail.com or text: 403-870-7033

I waited 6 Months for these wheels to come in so save yourself the time and wait maybe 2 weeks MAX for shipping and not 6 months wait from Japan!





Selling these to help fund my other car, the money pit.... the Type R =P

CDV Clutch Delay Valve

I just ordered a CDV from EAS and was wondering if someone here could recommend a good place to have it installed that's not BMW? In the Vancouver area. I tried a search but came up with nothing. Thanks.
