Default Pro Detail Shops in So Cal

I'm in search of a professional detail shop in the L.A. area and surrounding communities. The paint on my car needs some serious work and I just don't have the time or space to do it myself. I want to have my car 3-stepped and polished. I would rather not take it to a car wash-type of detail shop. I'm looking for a master of their craft.

Please post up any information you have. Thanks.

Price really isn't the issue. I'd rather pay more and have excellent work, than pay less and end up with a buff and wax that I could do my self.

I'm still going to look into this "Bong" guy. Thanks for the tip.

I'm sure you can any "garden variety" detail for $100-$150 for the entire car, inside and out.

But in my case, it's going to take more than just a simple buff and wax to get my car back to it's proper shine. I'm willing to spend that much and more for just the outside.

Thanks but I got a new job and moved up to the Gay Bay

Where are you located? San Fernando Valley? San Gabriel Valley? Inland Empire? OC? You'd probably be better off finding a mobile detailer rather than going to a detail shop. Lemme know where you are and I'll see if I have any recommendations...

What color is your car?
