Love your work. The close ups on the reflections are great but you should post a couple pictures where you can see the whole car out in the driveway from different angles as well. That way you can appreciate the full on look.

I love your threads. Carbon Black + Cinnamon is one of my favorite combos, too.

Jesus man. You are incredible at what you do!

I agree with the op about a full on picture. Would be nice to see it in full detail all at once.

how much do you charge for a detail job just curious? From the looks of it you can charge a crap load with that kinda work.

How did you get the calipers so shiny? Do you pull the wheels or try to clean through them?

I know what you mean. I almost hate taking the car out after I am done detailing it. In Phoenix, even on a fairly calm day, it's covered in fine haze of dust after driving 10 miles. It drives me insane.
