All the sponsors on this site would do a good job straightline, speed inc., and modern muscle are all very good places to have have your car tuned. Just depends on where you are located?

I just started to detail some cars there this past year so no one really knew about it, detailing is extra but I think its worth it. Your car was actually there when I was detailing that black z06 with big skull on the hood. If you would like your car detailed you can either pm me or talk to Nick and he can get a hold of me. I do actually live closer to you then new lenox so I could detail it at my house.

Did you detail a black vert WS6 back in like July-ish? It looked mega clean so that's why I ask...

PM me if you have any questions or would like to go over anything. A phone call would be even better.

Thanks to everyone else who replied with the comments!
