Active Auto Detailing

Thanks to this forum I was finally able to find a good detailer located in Houston. Quick, honest, great work and fairly priced. Check em out on their FB page!

Looks great! Love the color too.

Out of interest - how do you fare in TX with no front plate? I have mine on. It would look better off, but it doesn't bother me. Just wondering if you get pulled over or ticketed much.

*knock on wood* I haven't had any problems with no front plate. I drive by at least one sheriff a day with it. I'm of the mindset that as long as you aren't doing something completely stupid they will leave you alone. Also, been pulled over twice and neither cop said anything about it.

^ Same. I have out of state plates, but up-to-date registration, so hopefully nothing happens

I am not 100% sure but I don't think you can get pulled over just for not having a front plate - I have not been bothered on the M3, but have on my Jeep when I got stopped for a different violation.

I do not have a front plate either. Just have it in the car and say that you just had your bumper fix or something

Depends on what level of detail you want, but it is all very reasonable.

I think I paid $280-300 for a two-step Polish. I believe his rates are vehicle size and paint color dependent. It's best to contact him yourself for a quote.
