ArmyofOne Detailed: 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX-STi w/ Cobb Racing Stage 2 kit

Ok, so let me just say...HOLY HELL this car is fast. I have driven fast cars, some faster than 9 second 1/4 mile cars...this thing is balls to the wall fast...when i got done with it today...i was shaking. Literally. But here it is...The aresenal...


Megs. Deep Crystal Car Shampoo
Megs All Wheel Cleaner

Megs Claybar kit
Megs ColoRx
Megs Gold Class Paste
Megs NXT 2.0
Megs Hot Shine Tire Gel
Megs Quik Interior Detailer
Megs Dash and Trim Foam
Stoners Invisible Glass

Please note as you read...ALL of this was applied and removed entirely by hand...At no time did I employ the use of a power buffer or orbital...Also, this car sat all summer and did not move an inch due to a deployment. So here we go:

Some of the services I offer, (provided im compensated):

Pull off all 4 wheels and clean on the backsides, or clay them if nessecary, and wash the calipers.

Rubberized Underbody coating

Chrome Polish on certian accesories

Paint brake calipers (again, if compensated accordingly)

Ill even do an oil change if the customer supplies the oil and filter...
