Only place to get your ride detailed.

Damain is probably the best IN THE WORLD, and there is not a business like his in the country.

How are they price wise?

Well, they are the best.

Are you looking for the best job, or the cheapest?

They are actually VERY well priced considering the quality of the job they do.

Depends on whether I can get the best done for cheaper :happy:

A rough indication would have been nice.

the proverbial "no brainer"

Damian and the boys at Final Inspection. End of muthaf*cking story.

Don't even CONTEMPLATE anywhere else, because these guys are practically the same price as comparable "detailers" but provide a level of service completely unmatched by anyone in the ENITRE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE!!! I say 'southern' because there is a freak of a detailer in the UK by the name of Paul Dalton. He does some ultra impressive work as well.

I believe a Stage 1 detail is around $200, (don't quote me on that). But it really, REALLY, depends on the condition of the paint.

If people post up some pics, i can give you an idea of how bad/good the paint is. Full sun shots preferably

dunno why everyone says this final inspection place is the best? as dezz said, unless you've used every other detailer in melbourne/victoria you cannot compare! i've never used final inspection, and i don't doubt they are very good, but i can't comment on their work as i havent seen anything.

all i know is i paid $220 for my detail, and now my car looks although its ready to be taken delivery of for the first time out of the showroom. so i'm very happy.. but i won't go as far as saying they are the best, forget everyone else! that is just ignorant!

if you followed the progress of the construction of Final Inspection's Auto Boutique in Brunswick, seen Damian's work, read about detailing and learning about the best products, the best techniques, what to look for in good results, what corners can be cut, what are the common pitfalls, what are the band-aid approaches, what are the tricks supposed "detailers" use to create "good" results, the bullshit that is found in any industry (5 star shine). When you hang around all this and the detailing forums, and try all the products, see what everyone around the world is using, their results and their processes, you'll quickly realise that Final Inspection has no peer in Australia.

A car straight from the showroom has the potential to look a million times better than how it's presented when you buy it.

is your car metallic Ruffels? got any full sun shots?

Around 200 bux is fair, what does a Stage 1 detail include though?

I'll be getting both my cars done at FI, and take my mums car there to fix up the shltty job the place she just got it detailed at did...

I haven't used anyone else for a detail, but if I'm happy with the work of the one place, why not recommend it? *thumbs up*

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
