Detailed: 2003 Saleen 281

Good Vibrations, in Horsham, PA has been a great help to us in referring work! This is one of their client cars, the 4th Saleen S281 that we have detailed as a result of this shop, that was in need of a corrective detail. This 2003 Saleen S281 in Red, has had a LOT of work done to it, very little stock parts remain if any at all! Putting down a healthy 600+ hp, it needed to look the part in regards to it's paint and wheels. The wheels alone, took Mikhael most of the detail to revive, at around $8k for the set of wheels alone, they needed the most attention possible! The pics show Mike's work on them, from getting them clean and spotless to polished, shined and sealed. Very few deep defects were found on this car, however, there were definitely swirls that needed to be gone!
