Yeah, I've seen a few more around Houston too. I was sooo cool seeing all the G37's at the meet.

Nam: I order LEDS 4 & 6. I can't remeber exactly what they are called, but I orders the 4's for the license and 6 for everywhere else. I will definitely be calling your if I run into snags. I you need any help with mods you can call me too. haha Shoot, I'm almost a professional modder now. haha

You can also try the following:

http://www.handwax.net/

http://www.drdetail.net/

I don't have any experience with either, but I pass Dr. Detail frequently here in Spring and will probably give them a shot one of these days. I usually wash car myself, but I'm getting busier and yet lazier as I get older.

Yeah... it looks pretty deep ...I can see metal
I dunno what to do. I doubt "touching up" would do much.
I should have listened to all of you and tried to do it myself. I really hate seeing people touch my car. And then when I saw how they "hand wash cars" while I was paying ... I noticed them using these long brushes and the bristles look rough... and those guys uses the same cloths over and over.
Its not gentle like how I wash my car and examine it head to toe
But I see all these nice cars there... SL 550 and an Aston Martin too!

Should have used that money to get myself those Gucci Aviators!

That scratch is horrible lingtsui! That will require repainting not a "touch up" I think. Go back there and raise hell for them to pay for your panel to be repainted. It will rust if you leave it like that. You said you aren't the type of person to argue, but you should be mad and fight them on this. If you want, tell them that I'm your boyfriend and that I'm large, black, pissed, and armed and will come over to "discuss it" with them on your behalf if they dont fix it to your satisfaction.

Thanks Black Betty for your support. I really doubt I can get mad... I was mad when I saw it but even then it just made me want to cry. I will try to talk to them about it but I doubt they will be willing to pay for a repaint.

Thanks smoothieboy Yeah I heard about that place. I was actually gonna go there but then I heard about this one and this one happens to be so much closer to me
Probably should call and get an estimate on a repaint. Touch up never look natural IMO. Thanks again for getting that information for me!
