Beautiful jobs guys!

I think that is considered Mini abuse though to let it get that dirty.
It looks like someone was raising animals in it with all the dirt and hair.

I think the problem is that the process is usually gradual. It's sort of like seeing your kids everyday and not being so aware of their growth. However, if someone hasn't seen them for several months, the difference is very noticable.

Well I can think of one in Anaheim, CA, lol. Great restore. I have a policy of never quoting a car before seeing it though I can give a ball park range because like a mechanic, you can't tell them "My car is making a funny noise, how much will it cost to fix it?"

Great work, especially on the top - you made those scratches pretty much disappear.

On the wheel well and inner wheel areas, I appreciate the work and all, but won't the first time they drive this car in the rain negate all your hard work?

This car was really due and you made it look better than new - well done!
