it was legit...my car has never been clayed before and i have never clayed a car myself. i learned a lot about detailing (i am a big time rookie), the people working there were helpful and knew what they were talking about...not to mention the products were awesome!!!! before, my paint was rough...now it is smooth as hell!!! i spent about 3 1/2 to 4 hours just on the exterior(i'm a slow poke)...i first clayed the whole car...then i used a polish and reviving swirls product...then some buttery wax...and man what a difference...i also used a vinyl/rubber product that was great...also a glas cleaner...i didnt do the wheels, interior, or engine...i am to slow with the paint...but it was my first time so i took it slow...luke took some pics of our cars...so hopefully they are posted by tonight

overall:
products=10 out of 10
location of place= 10 out of 10
assistants/detailers knowledge= 10 out of 10
experience: 10 out of 10

Heh sorry to dissapoint but they're P-Zero Neros M+S tires. They've served me very well - I would definately reccomend them for anyone for front ( and only front) tires

Thats what I want to know. If you are running P-Zero Neros M+S tires up front you must have something real nice out back.
