Love having a clean car but despise doing the actual cleaning?
So many bugs. Already. And rock chips. Sigh. Going to be at this all day.

I just like money more than I do not having to put forth effort. $100 to have it detailed or $0 to do it myself. Easy decision.

I’d love to clean my own car at home but I live on a gravel road. It’s pretty worthless.

Have you considered getting a clear bra put on the front of the car? Maybe like 150ish bucks, pretty worthwhile investment!

I think it’s a little more expensive than that. I paid just over 1k 8-9 years ago to have the front bumper/exposed hood, mirrors, a pillars, and space behind each wheel. The dealer wanted double!!

I love washing, waxing, and interior cleaning. I hate washing wheels/using claybar.

Can you get a full detail for $100? Wash, wax, inside, leather care...That’s a pretty good deal!

Looks great fella.
Though not sure on the question.

I’m lost.

Damn, really? Lol, regardless I’d still do it because he’s keeping his car forever in theory. It‘d be a worthwhile investment in my eyes!

Yeap, depends on the thickness quality of material an the installer but I’ve not seen anything under $500. I went with a 3M certified guy and thicker material for the front/pillars/and mirrors.
I’m not sad that I did it on the M3. I’d say the only bad part about clear bra is that its tougher to get clean than the paint! I have to soak the front bumper with a towel if there are a lot of bugs/tar on the front.

Yes. I hate cleaning my vehicles, but love the end result.
