2011 Audi R8 V10 Coupe Correction by Richie's Custom Detailing

The owner of this 2011 R8 V10 Coupe had seen the Ibis White Spyder that I had worked on prevously at a local show and wanted the same treatment performed on his new R8 prior to delivery. He put his deposit down in April 2009 and now just took delivery of his R8. Now that's patience.

This R8 is equipped with all available carbon options.

Unfortunately the on site wash jockeys had washed it and induced some marring.

Before.

These are the people responsible for the marring/













On the lift ready to remove the wheels to seal them along with the calipers.



Wheels removed.







A little residue.



Tightened up.



Calipers sealled.

Curing.





Complete.





Wheel wells cleaned and dressed.









In the show room and ready to go.





Some of the defects. The car had some waterspots and plenty of RIDS from the wash jockeys.

Some were hard to capture on camera.





Rear filler panel was schffed up pretty good.





Taillights had some issues.

Before.



After.

Great work, I am always impressed by this detailing and correction works. It is craftmanship (and I would like to learn how when I see this pictures!)

It continues to amaze me that a majority of dealerships just don't get it on these higher end cars, but then again maybe the customers just don't know any better or care enough...
