I get that impression when I see the 08-15 front ends on these things. I just think this person was bored and had had a budget slightly higher than mine. 80k in receipts (if true, and if so YIKES) and I bet most of it is labor.

I'd still only give him 15k for it just because it's black. If it was white I'd give him 16k, OK maybe I'll go to 18k.

That, and in states that are more dirt than pavement, you can't have a black vehicle dust free for more than about 3 minutes...

That's the only problem when they're new, the paraffin wax is really noticeable. As it ages, it will get better, but with a black vehicle, you may have to make it a two step process using a spray detailer after.
