Prestige Auto Detailing: 2008 FJ Cruiser
WOW. If you think Toyotas do not go into the wild/ranch area,you better think again. lol My client has a lil money with, well, was a large ranch. Over 3,000 acres. He now has over 600 acres with exotic animals on it. When my client is in town, this is what he drives. No paved road to the ranch. He has to drive about 5 miles to get to his place on dirt road.
Today, I've detailed the engine BUT, there was so much mud all under the FJ, I drove it to an automated car wash just to get the mud out from under it. It took me well over an hour to get the mud off the driveway after I cleaned the engine and wheel wells removing the mud.
Oh, if you know what the FJs look like, you will be able to tell he made some changes to it. 3 of the 5 tires, including the spare, are bad. The FJ just hit 15k miles. I took it by the Ford, Lincoln Mercury dealership, where my dad is one of the managers, to get prices on new HD Off Road Tires. Toyota, or the dealership who ordered it, just got the basic Dunlop tires.

Nice job on the interior.
If you think that is dirty, you should see my Range Rover after hitting the mountains during the spring thaw.

Is there going to be a Driveway Detailing thread after this one?

LOL.... It's loaded with mud. By Tue/Wed, we have another good chance for rain. I hope to be done with it tomorrow. I will take the long way out of the back alley if needed. he he. I do not think I really have to put dressing on the tires since it has to be driven back down a 5+ mile dirt road back to thier place unless they park it at the house in down down here in the Valley.

Re: Prestige Auto Detailing: 2008 FJ Cruiser
Doh!! I feel like an idiot now. The last three pictures looked like the interior was done. Even worse, I actually read the whole post and still jacked it up. I read this after work, and it was a long day. Sorry, Stephen.
On a side note, I LOVE the FJ Cruisers. I'd like to have one, but I'd really like to have an FJ40.

Yeah, 5+ miles of dirt road and tire dressing wouldn't end up too well. If you just want the finished look, dress the tires after getting it to the client's house.

No worries Colin. The passenger side AND the rear section really have not been used. I know someone has spilled coffee in the passenger front. Good thing I have a steamer. It cleans the interior of this vehicle very easily.
