I can deal with Occasionally Sloppy Results but Wanton Destruction and Vehicle Vandalism when the…read moreshop owner is gallivanting around the world? Nah, it's not worth it. It's annoying when emails are never (and I mean NEVER) answered when trying to set up appointments. It's frustrating when you have to go through a dealer (Koby Subaru in this case, and they'll be dealt with in a separate review. Stay tuned.) to schedule and oversee detailing and to monitor the final product. (God bless Angie and Scott and Natalie at Koby Subaru for never letting Ricky's Pleasure Island Misfits get away with lazy half-cheeked vehicle details.) The last straw bale that broke this ersatz St. Sebastian's back was a vehicle that was returned with multiple knife-cuts to the side of a leather seat and a 5" scrape on the top surface of the driver's seat that removed the top layer and color. And oh, yeah, they decided to break off the electric mirror adjustment control as a thoughtful bit of lagniappe. A horde of people at Koby verified the new damage (easy peasy since the mechanics and service writers knew none of the damage was there when they were working on the vehicle BEFORE it was sent to Ricky's House of Carnauba Horror) and one sharp-eyed individual noticed the vertical slices in the new clearcoat. (The clearcoat was new because of damage to the car door during a previous Koby service appointment. But that's a story for another time.) Interestingly, Ricky used his transcontinental psychic abilities to prove that he knew the damage wasn't done by his employees. One hopes he learns to channel this invaluable trait into predicting natural and manmade disasters so that he can be of true value to mankind. Meanwhile, I would advise finding a different auto detailer unless, of course, one of your longstanding Family Traditions involves instructing Beauregard to take the fleet of Range Rovers and Buicks for their quarterly Simper and Shine under the tender ministrations of Alabama Auto Clean OR you have documentation certifying you are a bonafide Local and Well Connected Member of the Community of Mobile.

A local and well connected member of the community of Mobile said this was THE place to go…read more Everyone heard him recommend it and they all turned their heads and said, "Oh yeah. They are amazing!" They have several levels of service, but it's all listed at their website. I told the guy how highly recommended his company came and I jokingly told him he now had to live up to his name. He laughed and promised they would. They did! To be honest, I didn't even get a carpet shampoo, but it looked better than when the detailer did it in Atlanta and that was WITH a shampoo. I got the "Complete Detail" which I'll admit is pricey. I paid half of that in Atlanta, but again, the one in Atlanta wasn't nearly as good as this. I'm not rich and I have a really old car (it's a '97 Geo with over 150k miles), but I do like to get my car detailed at least once a year just to keep it looking decent. All I can say is that you are definitely getting what you paid for. I don't like to part with money at all (see my review for the dollar theater in Atlanta) and am a serious bargain hunter. Still, this was worth it! I'll definitely go back and tell everyone I'm very pleased. :)

Amazing service! My car looks fabulous. Great communication. Couldn't be happier with the results…read more Thanks y'all!

IF.! Your just looking for a general " looks good deal" then you cant beat their work pretty much…read more We went for the 200$ job that was supposed tobe like a reset... bringing it back to new. Cant remember the exact wording. Im on disability. It took some time saving for this. Sweety helped out too.i added a $40 tip. My car was used by my bodfriend while i was in the hospital 3 weeks. Driving it to his construction site job.. eating in it while going to the hospital each day. Alabamas red dirt was ground into the drivers carpet and the red dust was on the dash and such. But he was told it job would cover EVERYTHING. Of course the usually cleaning and the seats shampooed and trunk done. Plus a wash for the outside. The outside, floors dash and middle console was great. The trunk was never even opened. I was called outside after they had partly done it.. asking " what was most important to me to be done" I found that a hard question to answer. It was obvious the promised job wasnt gonna go. I got that. But i thought it strange to offer such a without seeing it first. I didnt know how much longer it would take for what i was willing to SETTLE FOR to be done. They had already worked on it 2 hrs. The drivers side floors were vacuumed, dadh and console and some windows cleaned. He had a small vacuume. Dont know how strong it was but that had to take a lg part of the 2 hrs. All in all. The outside looks Great!. The floors and front seats and dash n such looks great. They earned their money no doubt. But the back seats has serious stains from hauling decorations and such frim the holidays and all. My bf will have to clean it. And the trunk. There was no trash or anything to work around. The windows needed a good going back over. And drivers mirror was no good. But you cant meet or hire anyone harder working or nicer. So. Its according to what all you need and maybe take pics to send them if its bad. I wish them great luck

I took my Conversion van in to be detailed at FGD on March 9, 2019. We had just purchased it and…read moreit was clean when I brought it in. The previous owner had smoked in it and we wanted it steamed cleaned, washed, waxed & detailed. Price quoted $160. I picked up the van on Friday, 3/11. Michael was still working on it when we arrived, hence it was in a garage stall where the lighting wasn't the best. He told us that the carpet was still wet and we would need to keep it in a garage that night with the windows cracked so it would finish drying. Only about 12 inches were cleaned at the back of the van. The reason I know that is that nothing was moved underneath the couch and there was a box under the coach next to where the "VERY" wet carpet was. When I mentioned it wasn't good to have that box on the carpet that was wet, he said it was OK. If the carpet had been done that box would have been soaked and you would have seen it had been wet. It was a box of brand new brake pads.) We followed his instructions and the next morning, Saturday, I went out to look the van over and to start moving our things in. While the step wells were "Armor-Alled" and the leather seats were wiped down with some "leather conditioner", I found MANY things that were NOT done. I showed up at his shop on Monday morning. He pulled in and I was right behind him. I told Michael that we had a problem. I started to show him all the things that I found. He kept accusing me of wanting "New", I told him "No, I just wanted it clean - that's what I paid for!" After wiping off the top of the inside of a door and seeing the dirt, he told me to bring it back the next day (Tuesday) and he would take care of it. I showed up the next morning. He had not arrived yet, so my husband & I waited. He showed up and we left the van. I picked it back up at 4:30, he was not there and took it home. Again, I started to move our things into the van and went over it and his "fixes" were very shoddy. See the pictures below. I tried to load a video of wiping down the dash next to the windshield but the file is too large. Just that one video would have said it all. At any rate, I will never go back to FDG/Michael. He did an absolute HORRIBLE job and is not a man of his word. Also, if you notice the two 5 star reviews were done in 2016 & 2017. The 1 star review was in 2018 and mine in 2019. Do yourself a favor, do it yourself and treat yourself to a steak dinner!

It had…read moregone through the dealer's "scratch washing" bay so many times that the Highland Green metallic paint was dull from micro-scratches and swirls. I got an awesome deal on the car and figured I could get the scratches mostly out on my own. I was rescued by one of Cameron and Gavin's customers who sent me to Down South Detail - WOW that was like winning the lotto! These craftsmen did a paint correction detail plus a ceramic coating that made the metallic dark green paint GLOW in bright daylight or dark! Not even a hint of scratches or swirls left. They also did the black wheels which stay clean much longer, and stay shiny! Gavin even got carried away and got in the engine bay shining up metal, painted, and plastic parts that glow now too! Now I get stopped on the street by complete strangers asking me about the paint. I tell them it's "Down South" Highland Green! So of course I left them my 3 year old Black Harley Low Rider "S" with the dark gold wheels that always get grimy from dirt and brake dust. It has a lot of miles and swirl marks plus a dozen real scratches on the tank where my knees hugged it during "oh crap" moments in the Rocky Mts. Again these new family members of mine presented me with a Harley that looked brand new - with all scratches and swirls Gone! Again, Gavin went wild and polished aluminum and stainless steel parts, and even polished and coated my gauge lenses which bead up nicely in the rain. The gold wheels stay bright and clean sooo easily now, and are a breeze to clean! I have been to numerous detail shops around the country, but Cameron and Gavin perform at higher level than I ever though possible. THANKS!
