Auto Obsessed performed a New Vehicle Detail to this 2017 R8 V10+. The exterior underwent a full decontamination wash including iron and tar removal. The wheels, wheel wells, doorjambs, exhaust, and engine bay were extensively detailed with a host of OBSSSSD Premium Products. The paintwork underwent a full multistage paint correction to perfect the paintwork before application of XPEL Ultimate Paint Protection Film to the entire vehicle. We then finished the vehicle in CarPro Cquartz FINEST Ceramic Coating. CarPro CQuartz Finest is a professional only product and can only be applied by or sold to official CarPro accredited installers. Auto Obsessed is an accredited dealer and installer of CarPro CQuartz Finest. CarPro CQuartz Finest represents the ultimate development of the CarPro line of advanced nanotechnology coatings. Backed by a 2-Year CarPro Certified Warranty, CQuartz Finest offers the highest gloss the richest finish, the greatest scratch resistance and the most protection of any CQuartz coating.

The full OBSSSSD product line can be found here: www.obssssdproducts.com (http://obssssdproducts.com/obssssd-products/)

Awesome job.

I would be so chapped if my $250k car had paint like that from the factory.

All new cars require work, doesn't matter what brand they are, we have never received a new car that has not required any paint correction or decontamination. Some of course come better than others but no car has ever been received by us that does not require some special attention right from brand new. Most of the new cars we receive are not driven yet or only have 15-30kms on them coming from the dealerships.

People fail to understand that cars are moved several times, handled by many people, sit in shipping yards, rail yards, car parking lots for extended periods of time outside. In addition the factories do not detail or do final paint corrections to any car, this is left up to the dealerships to complete.

In closing, if you want your new car to be as close to perfect as possible, you will need to do a fair amount of work yourself or hire a qualified company to carry it out for you.
