I have a black 2004 Chevrolet Silverado SS that I bought new. I've taken good care of him, always garaged, never machine washed, strictly maintained. The truck is 20 years old and I felt he needed some proper paint restoration and a protective coating. I asked Dylan Chafee of Mad Vehicle Protection (MVP) for an evaluation and suggestions. First impression; Dylan was prompt, professional and listened to me. He looks you in the eye when he talks to you. And I took a peek in his work truck, it was immaculate and organized. I judged a craftsman on how well he takes care of his tools. Dylan performed an example of paint restoration and it was obvious the guy is meticulous. I trusted my old friend to Dylan and Tyler. I dropped off a black truck with dingy paint and got back a sculpted piece of black volcanic glass! I am MOST satisfied with MVP! Thanks Dylan

Dylan PPFing M3 competition

Working with Dylan has been very easy. He is very thorough with his work and has plenty of experience working on all sorts of cars. I brought me M3 competition to him for matte PPF and while observing Dylan it's very clear that he is a perfectionist and is observant with every detail ensuring that I recieved a perfect ppf job. Thank you Dylan!

Three weeks after the ceramic coating, and all the rain spots and scuffs are gone!

Dylan is professional, prompt, passionate about his work, and is a perfectionist. I'm driving a black car, which is looking beautiful because he applied a ceramic coating. Probably the cleanest, glimmering black car in the area.

Fantastic work done on my GRC. Dylan and his team are top notch with customer service and in the attention to detail they provide. Also always there with good suggestions and tips for keeping the car looking showroom quality! GRC got tinted, ceramic coated and PPF for the carbon fiber roof. Everything came out great and looks better than it did when I bought it!

My brother recommended me to Dylan as he works on all of his vehicles. I had an exterior renewal wash and detail service along with headlight restoration for my 2016 Tacoma! Let me tell you, I couldn't be happier with the end result, my truck was looking old and tired and now it looks brand new again! Dylan is very passionate about his work and never cuts corners! You can tell he appreciates his customers and loves what he does. His price is very reasonable and I will definitely use him again in the future!

Finished Clear headlights, With less oxidation and scratches!

Amazing service. Came in for a headlight restoration and he busted it out no problem for me. Would recommend!

Dylan takes his craft seriously and I appreciate that very much. His professionalism and eye for detail is evidenced by how good my XC90 T8 looks after his detailing. I will be calling him regularly!

Our 2016 Odyssey is not garage parked and was in need of some TLC. I always do a lengthy search through Yelp then narrow my choices. I narrowed it down to 3 and chose Dylan's company. I'm really happy I did. He was quick to respond by phone and and happy to discuss the issues I had with my car. He told me what he would be able to do and quoted competitive price. We made an appointment and he was at my house as planned. The guys worked for 6 hours on the car, inside and out. The even removed all of my rear seats to do a more thorough job inside. The car looks great! Dylan and his partner were very professional and really nice guys. I will certainly be calling them again for our other cars. Chris

Dylan's ATTENTION TO DETAIL is spot on! He goes the EXTRA MILE to give great quality service! Arrived on time and finished within the time he forecasted to make our Audi Q3 look brand new!!

So clean!

My 2017 Accord needed an engine cleaning badly. Dylan came out and did an awesome job. The engine bay looks brand new! I was impressed and Dylan is great communicator and he know what he is doing.

I was so frustrated trying to find a mobile detailing business... I was lucky to find Dylan's detailing. He is extremely responsive, asked amazing questions that I wouldn't even think to ask so that he could give me the right price. I had my car completely detailed inside and out because it hadn't been washed since November and I'm now going to hire him for an every two week maintenance service. This car is cleaner than when I got it from the dealer. Dylan and his coworker Tyler showed up completely professional, right on time and very personable. You won't be disappointed.

Nancy C.

Dylan did a PHENOMENAL job detailing my Raptor! He was super professional, insanely diligent with his attention to detail and went above and beyond to clean every square inch, inside, outside and underneath the truck. He's now my go-to detailer and worth every dollar. Highly highly recommend!

Interior

As always, Dylan did a great job. His love for vehicles and detailing shows with his great quality of work!

UPDATE: After posting this review, Efrain contacted me regarding the partial refund he had already…read moreagreed to issue. He asked me to remove my review before he would process the refund. When I declined and stated that I would contact my bank if the agreed refund was not issued, he told me he would place a mechanic's lien on my van and that it would be "mine in 90 days." He continued messaging me after I asked him not to contact me further. Due to limited photo space, I removed the original vehicle photos and replaced them with screenshots of these conversations so prospective customers can see the communication for themselves. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this company based on my experience. I hired Efrain, the owner/operator, to clean the exterior and front cab of my high-roof Ford Transit van for $232. I sent photos of the van beforehand, so the size and height of the vehicle were known before the job was accepted. After the service was completed, after only 1 hour 15 minutes, which I felt was rather fast for a detail on a large vehicle. I specifically asked Efrain whether the roof had been washed and was told that it had not been, due to his insurance not allowing him to do roofs on tall vehicles. The entire roof was left unwashed. The wheel wells were also still dirty, and there were water spots/marks left on the exterior of the van. Alongside some very obvious spots of pollen still left on the vehicle. At no point before the service was I told that the roof would not be cleaned or that he was unable to access it. When I questioned why it hadn't been done, I was repeatedly told that I should have specifically communicated that I wanted the "top top of the roof" cleaned and that this was a "miscommunication on both ends." I disagree with that characterization. I booked an exterior cleaning, and the roof is part of the exterior. If a business is unable or unwilling to clean an entire section of a vehicle, I believe that limitation should be disclosed before accepting the job. Had Efrain told me beforehand that the roof would not be cleaned, I simply would have hired a company equipped to clean the entire van. Leaving the entire roof unwashed is also particularly frustrating because the dirt and grime remaining on top can wash down the sides of the van when it rains, defeating much of the purpose of having the exterior professionally cleaned in the first place. Efrain ultimately acknowledged in writing that he had not communicated that they "don't do hard access roofs" and agreed to issue a partial refund. Between the entire roof being left untouched, the dirty wheel wells, the water marks left on the exterior, and the way my concerns were initially handled, I was very disappointed with the service I received for $232. I now have to hire another company to properly finish cleaning the vehicle. I'm including photos of the condition of the van after the service as well as screenshots of my conversation with Efrain so prospective customers can see the results and communication for themselves and make their own decision.

My car looks brand new. Efrain is awesome and was able to take care of my car while I was at work…read more He is very responsive, responsible and a good person and above all does amazing work. Highly recommend his service !

I rarely leave negative reviews, but after this experience I feel it's important to share…read more I've been coming to Simi Valley Car Wash for the Manager Special, which includes carpet cleaning. Unfortunately, I've had the exact same issue five separate times. Each visit, the carpets have been left excessively wet. Even after keeping the windows and doors open for nearly 48 hours, parts of the carpet are still damp and develop a musty, swamp-like odor. Every single time, I've had to return to have the work redone. I want to be fair because the customer service from the young men writing the tickets, the young lady at the front office, and the manager has consistently been excellent. Every time, they have been polite, professional, and willing to make things right. They deserve recognition for how they've represented the company they work for. The problem is that having to make a second trip after every carpet cleaning is simply unacceptable. What finally convinced me not to return was my interaction with the owner on July 23, 2026. I pulled in intending to explain, as I had on previous visits, that the carpet was still overly wet and had developed the same musty odor. Instead of listening, the owner approached me in a confrontational manner, raised his voice, spoke over me, and immediately blamed me for the smell. He insisted that carpet cleaning couldn't cause odors and told me I needed to take better care of my vehicle. He also kept getting within arm's distance, trying to be intimidating. I offered for him to sit in the vehicle, close the doors, and smell it for himself. I told him that when I turn on the AC, it gets even worse and smells like a swamp. He then said it was because I don't change my AC air filter. I explained that I change it almost every month or every other month because of my daughter's allergies. He refused to believe me and said I needed to change it again, even though the smell was clearly coming from the carpet in the rear of the vehicle where it was the worst. He then told me, "How about this: why don't you go change your filter again, and if it still smells, then we'll talk about doing it again." I explained that I used to detail cars and that if too much water or cleaning solution is left in the carpet without proper extraction, it can absolutely create a mildew or musty smell. Rather than having a professional conversation, he told me I didn't know what I was talking about and dismissed everything I said before again blaming me for the condition of my car after it left his business. Everyone can have a bad day, and mistakes happen. What matters is how a business responds when a loyal customer brings a recurring issue to their attention. Instead of listening and trying to understand why I'd had the same problem five consecutive times, the owner chose to argue, blame the customer, and be disrespectful. Because of that interaction, I won't be returning. I hope the owner realizes that good customer service starts at the top. His employees have shown me more professionalism and respect than he did.
