I had the opportunity to work on MiniMB's cars (thanks for the recommendations Heather and Richard@Euroberge!). After cleaning up the SUV before thanksgiving, it was time to give the Clubman some loving and prep it for winter. We agreed on a full interior detail as well as a clay and fresh coat of wax, plus cleaned and protected wheels, and an engine bay ready for the mag chloride and grime of winter Also, major thanks to my younger brother Connor for helping me out with this one. I've got 2 finals this afternoon and his help made it a lot easier to finish things up stress free.

All done!

 

My baby is all ready for winter (should we ever GET winter on the front range) thanks to Brendan.

If anyone in the area is looking for a top detailer, look no further! My husband Mark and I were VERY impressed with Brendan, his attention to detail, and his professionalism. We'll most certainly be calling him again in the Spring!

(Brendan also must have some serious restraint, because he left our house with with the MINI and a full tank of gas, and returned with one as well! LOL )

Haha, I even made sure to better your average mileage (this was the toughest part )

Ignore the blue tint in the center of these photos. My iPhone camera doesn't like fluorescents.








Final product

 

Looking good, nice work. I washed our Clubman on Saturday, a beautiful 45 degree sunny day and now we have white out blizzard conditions today...yuck.

 

what length are your Yakima bars?

 

I am not sure what length they started at, but I had Rocky Mounts (www.rockymounts.com) cut down the standard Yak bars so I wouldn't smack my head every time I got out of the car. In retrospect, I shouldn't have cut them down quite as much...it would be nice to fit a third wheel holder in the back.

I'm headed home this Thursday (I live in Solon.) I've got 3 cars scheduled and I'm not looking forward to them!
