Default Michelangelo's Detail (Pics)

I picked up may car this afternoon from Michelangelo's Auto Salon. Overall I'm pleased. They did a great job of refinishing a wheel and removing half a dozen or so scratches. The paint looks impeccable now. I was a little disappointed the engine wasn't fully detailed - they gave it a quick wash but I was hoping they'd have time for a little more.

Here are some pics I snapped on the way home from the detail

gteehan - how much did they charge you for the wheel refinish? I need a set machined and refinished and they are way more convenient that most places I've been asking about.

$250 - A little much IMO for a single wheel with light damage, but I'm a creature of convenience and they did an excellent job.

$250 is steep for one wheel. I'm getting quotes from $165 - $200 per wheel for machining the lip, disassemble/assemble (2 piece) and refinish the inside to new. None are convenient though for me as I'm in the East end - Pickering.

WOW, 250 for one wheel is alot of money...
I had them fix a wheel for me while my car was in for a stone chip repair and Michael quoted me $125.00.
