Exclamation Driven Perfection in MA

Spring is knocking, even though my winter wheels are still on (waiting for all the spring rain to subside), I have made an appointment with Driven Perfection in Weymouth, MA to have my car detailed. I have always hand detailed my cars however this winter was just awful and I look at my car and I see at least 2-3 days of prep work involved with stripping all the grime, dirt and sand off the car, and with my work and school schedule, I just cant make time at all sadly. The ivory pearl looks really really dirty even though I zaino'd it all this past thanksgiving.

I've heard many good things about this place, many on the E90 forums rave about it so I thought I would give them a shot, not many detailing companies clay your car so it was nice to hear the guy say that he will clay everything. Im excited to see how it all turns out in the end, even though I have a month till the appointment, still excited to see my IP all pearled up.

I had them do my tint and clearbra and Alex was great. The installer for the Clearbra was delayed and so it wasn't ready on time. He stayed until it was done and waited for me to come get it. LONG after closing time. I appreciated the good customer service and look forward to having them detail it in the next few months.

My experience has been good and I have yet to read a bad word about them ANYWHERE.

Did they have issues with tinting the back window? Alex called me earlier today saying he had to cut out the brake light because they couldn't put it over it. I expect to go pick it up in the next hour or so and I'm a little antsy

Driven Perfection = awesome

I got my car back earlier today from Driven Perfection and I just wanted to say this place is awesome. Alex and his team is very professional/helpful, answered all my questions, and does outstanding work. He certainly went the extra mile and stayed late to finish the clear bra install. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Thanks to everyone for their input!

35% tint:







Clear bra (yes, it is practically invisible)

quite excited, my car will be a piece of work for them, it is full of tree sap and all the other elements (not happy about parking under a tree overnight).

My car will test their detailing skills as I am getting the full package done in April.

Sorry for the slow response, I just saw your post. The car looks great! Funny thing about your 3rd brake light. Alex looked at mine when I got there and wondered if they would need to cut around it. I have the sedan and they did not have to do the cut out around the light. It must be a coupe issue.

I am glad that you were happy. I plan to head over around may or June and have them detail the outside of my car.

Glad I found this post, have been looking for a good detailer and this one seems like it has nothing but good reviews from what I've found.

one more week left guys, the oem 19's are finally on, also took the chance while swapping the wheels out to clean all the calipers. Washed the whole car using CG citrus wash and gloss (really took all the winter grime out). Shined up the exhaust with P21S metal soap so now its all shiny, basically did a lot of prep work leading up to the detail.

I will take a lot of before and after shots as I know they will as well..Lets hope for good weather next weekend
