Hey guys, I'm still on honeymoon (muahaha) but of all the exotic cars that came in into our studio, here's one that I would like to share. This is not your typical E55 wagon but this is a one of a kind - AMG safety car - all the way from our neighboring country (sweet mother mary!) - I bet its the only one in Malaysia! Mind you - the engine sound resonating from this wagon is no small joke -

Sorry folks, its been super hectic here at my small studio. Back to back details. Doing my best to complete the pending writeups plus the unposted work (around a dozen vehicles). Christmas is coming so, dont let the rainy season spoil the mood, give your vehicle a good wash (in and out) and put some wax/sealant on it whether it be DIY or sending to the shops - when you vehicle looks good - you

See how we transform the vehicle to a better condition. Stay tune!

Had a great opportunity to meet with an awesome client. Recently bought the E90 but wanted to remove the swirls and more protection on the vehicle especially on the paint so send it to me to do some exterior work. Did not managed to take huge number of pictures as pressed for time and also focused more on doing paint correction. Some snippets on delivery day: Graffiti on

Seems that a few of the EU and Asian members were looking for carbon brushes and also a "how to" in changing them. So I got some free time today and decided to help out the members here. Been looking around for alternatives for the carbon brush and managed to source them locally. Equivalent to the original ones (dimension wise) but not 100% sure on the composition of the carbon though. -

A very kind gentlemen was very keen in getting his newly acquired car, properly detailed. When we met, the car looks glossy indeed and what seems to be a simple exterior detail became quite a challenge for me. The work on this car endured for 3 days (at least 35hours) to complete the overall work. A very nice car here and he managed to get his hands on an awesome 2.0 version. Odo was

Here is another client's car which was still brand new (less then 5k KM on the odo) and wanted his car to be taken cared of, the proper way. We corrected the defects on the paint, cleaned the engine and gave the interior a good general cleanup plus other minor work. Here's the condition when it arrived at my studio (sent in around 10pm). Pictures were taken on the next day - 7am ish.

Did this a few weeks back. Had some free time today to do this writeup. This is basically a brand new car. Just rolled out of the dealer and the owner send it directly to my place. Less than 200km on the odometer. Pictures upon arrival. Exterior Before No comments on the fluffy pink stuff inside the car though. Some adhesive residue on the side. Tar spots

The owner has just bought the car less then 5 months ago and odometer is less then 5000km. Plus the owner is a very nice person and would not mind I spend extra time on his ride (has another spare car to commute). Total time spent on the car was around 30hours spanning over 3days. Owner mentioned the car has never been polished; only waxed by dodgy car wash centers. (during work, the

This is the derivative of the Daihatsu Move Custom. Owner wanted it to be detailed in and out. It took me around 30hours to complete the whole car But before that: First and foremost, I apologize for the lack of "befores" as majority of the pictures taken were corrupted thus unusable. So here goes, car went in on Friday night. Steps: Engine: Engine PW to loosen grime & dust Sprayed

I've detailed the paint about a year plus ago. Car is never under a garage/shed (home park outside, workplace no shade). Its true 24/7 under the sun/moon *LOL*. Paint is Metallic Silver and only have very minor swirls. Only issue is the bonded contaminants. Never been washed by a car wash company. Its one of my test mule on testing products (especially sealants/waxes). It was wearing

Last Friday, a buddy of mine told me to take a look at his car and wondered if I can help to increase the gloss. So after much discussion, he dropped the car on Friday night. By the way, this car aint no Passo, its a Perodua Myvi. So here goes. Not much was done on the interior and undercarriage; work was more focused on exterior and engine cleanup. Car upon arrival: Holograms on

Hi guys. Been some time from doing full details and writeup, but here we go. The owner of this car is actually my brother. This is his Christmas and also New Year's gift. Its a FOC work. The car has never been detailed properly, he only patrons those cheesy car wash; its cheap he says. LOL So here are some pictures at arrival. Note: All lights under Metal Halide Side Driver Door

Thought of sharing some work done on my car. The last full detail was on Oct 08; till today, its only washed and coupled with regular waxing every 2 weeks or so. The paint is not perfect. No major swirls but only odd random light scratches and the unavoidable water spots. Since the workers doing the renovation took some time off to go deep sea fishing, I took the chance to clean my car.

Its a Perodua Myvi Metallic Black. Owned by another friend that used to have his own car wash company. It just came out of the bodyshop as certain parts of the car had been repainted (meaning its fresh paint, barely 3 days out from the oven). Initially he told me the bodyshop already polish it for him and it was already shinny so I was hoping it was in a acceptable form - but when it arrived

Finally I got a friend that does not mind his car being posted online. Background: The car is rebadged model of the Daihatsu Move. Locally its called Perodua Kenari. The car had been repainted 2 months ago from Red to Metallic Purple. The owner was not satisfied with the outcome as he mentioned that the reflection was blurry. So after a length discussion, he settled for a simple detail

This is my best friends car and he's getting married on the 27th Dec. So, I thought of giving him a wedding present by detailing his car and he said yes! He really love this car. Modified it as soon as it went out of the delivery bay. Power chips, larger turbo, uprated diesel pump, nozzle upgrade, front mount intercooler, blow valve, better suspension, bigger exhaust pipe...etc Tested

One of the friends parents sent over his car to be properly cleaned. So took me around 1.5 days to do all the stuff as I'm still not feeling well. Once I'm done with this car, I'm gonna take a short break.... Anyhow, vet through and I have a big surprise for you guys! The car is still new. If not mistaken its 2005 model.

Another friend decided to get this car some good cleanup. He recalled the last time the car was polish (dodgy car care centre) was not less than 18months. So, he wanted the car to look good for Christmas. Anyhow, the car at hand - A Perodua Kelisa - similar to Daihatsu Mira 5th Gen - is also quite popular around here with all the crazy modding on bodykits; VIP (similar to DUB) styling and

A good friend of mine entrusted his new car to be detailed (4000KM). He love this car to bits.. (ps: the car mod craze here is to modify this model to the Toyota Passo or Daihatsu Sirion/Boon - costly mods though ) He wanted especially the paint to be as glossy as it can be so here goes... Day 1: Car reached my place around 4pm. Only started work around 10pm (I went out with my girlfriend)

Overview The car is owned by my friend's parents. They didnt really took care of it (cosmetic wise) so I voluntered to help them to clean it up (Christmas gift ) The car is White (clearcoat). Showed signs of repaint on front hood, front fender and driver's door. But strangely, film build was consistent throughout the car even on the painted panels. maybe they replaced the affected panels
