Default Automotive Detailer

Well, my 850 is pretty much totalled. I'm gonna pull the interior out of it eventually and transfer it along with all of the other parts onto another car. The problem is, with the popped airbags, I really gotta get the interior clean, because the airbag remnants will eat up the interior, and I'm not sure I A) have the time to do it as thoroughly as it should be and B) have the ability to stomach that godawful airbag smell that long.

Anyone know of a detailer that could do a good and very thorough cleaning of the interior for a reasonable price? I can take the car to them if they want (It'd have to be on a trailer and dropped off there) or they can come here, I'm in the West end.

Thanks guys

-Andy

If you look through their photobooks you'll see they arent above cleaning a lot of totally fucked up cars. We had a Saleen Cobra there getting a clear bra put on as they were working on a NSX that was completely underwater during that last hurricane that ruined so many cars in the bottom.

Personally I would do it myself. Just take everything out, clean it, throw it back in. Do it on a sunny day where you can leave the car open all day and not smell the air bag burning hair smell all day.

And yes, Concours is not cheap.
