I want to say gorgeous, but that wont do because your car is actually menacing! Looks nasty bro, simply nasty! Very nice GXP!

Wow! That shot of the before and after is unreal.

I'm digging the splashguards. I just have to work up the nerve to install mine.

WOW...that is one sick looking GXP!

I'm constantly amazed by detailers who know how to wield a buffer. The before/after pic is just friggen ridiculous! It's like a night and day difference. When I had my Monte detailed, all I could do was stare at it. It looked like a brand new car without all the swirls and small scratches.

OP, if you don't mind me asking, how much did you spend on the detail?

Yeah I have mine done once a year too. I have mine scheduled in two weeks. $280 is not bad at all. Like you said, it's worth every penny. I paid $200 last year (discounted because I knew the guy). Took him about 7 hours to do the outside. My jaw dropped in disbelief after I saw it.
