Paint correction, ceramic and glass coating

This 2012 gem had it all completed today. Took about a week and now looks brand new! No more swirls in the clear coat and the wheels were also glass coated. All in - $750--know a guy....

By the way - the detailer was nice enough to lend me his Aston Martin DB9 (black) while the M3 was being completed. Doesn't look too shabby next to my Aston Martin Vantage (Gray)

I was quoted $485 for the paint correction and detail, plus anywhere from $700-1700 for the ceramic coating, depending on whether it was a 4-10+ year warranty coating.. hard to Shell out $1200 since I'm waiting to do RB in the next few months.. but damn it would be nice to get this done. Car washes become easy as hell.

Ceramic coating

[IMG]got my car paint corrected and ceramic coated and the shine is amazing, it looks shine even when it's dusty or it rains. It's unbelievable how good it always looks.
A buddy of mine did the whole thing for me for 400 dollars

I need the ceramic pro on my car refreshed before the winter sets in. I see you're in NOVA. Care to share the name? Help a local fellow out
