Default Where to get car detailed in NoVA?

I'm getting the car ready to sell, but I need to get the exterior detailed. Anyone know a good place in the VA/MD area? I need to have the tar and bug guts scrubbed out and a good waxing.

Thanks for the help.

In your driveway

There's a whole list of detailing places in the Yeller pages, or scan your local paper for c00pons

Koons Collision Repair Center. Intersection of Edsall road and Van Dorn in alexandria
They have a crucial detail guy named James. I think they charge between 100 and 150 but its well well worth it.

here is the info

Leave it up to George to have trouble with other's syntax.

Maybe Victor will have some insight seeing as how he needs to keep his show kaa looking spiffy.

What about Mobil Auto Detailing? Anyone have any experience with them? Their prices seem reasonable.

I would do it myself, but I need some attention above and beyond what my tools, skills, or muscles can provide.

I'm going to buy a track only car. Something that I can track without worrying about what happens if I total it, and something I won't worry so much about theft. Something I can race in the HC within a year or two.

Thinking '92 or '93 Teg, and run H4.

Lower car payment + way lower insurance = more $ for mods and track time.

Wish I could tell you I was trading it in for an Evo ir STi...

good choice, though.

Do you have a tow vehicle yet?

Not yet. That will come later. For now I will keep it street legal, and drive to the track.

Let me know if you need any help with that.

90-91 is the same, less 10HP and they are OBD0, while 92-93 is OBD1. You can update the head/cams/IM on the older cars to make up the HP difference.

They are good peeps. I haven't been to them, but have had friends go or have them come to them in the past. I have used a place just up the street from my work that does a good job for when I show.
