Better warranty. They did my wheels multiple times and even made them a shade darker to make the car color.

I dropped my car off yesterday morning with Trade Secret for a full interior & exterior detailing and the results were terrific! The car looks better now than when it was brand new, not bad for 24k miles and multiple roadtrips. They even touched-up some rock chips and buffed out the scuffs on the rear bumper near the trunk from suitcases. Most notable was how good of a job they did on all the black exterior plastic, I've been using Mother's Back To Black but that doesn't even come close in comparison to what they were able to do; the center front bumper, inside of the wing, and the lower rear bumper are all pure glossy black now! Even all the bugs stuck in my intercooler are gone
I suck at and hate taking pictures, but here's a quick one I snapped with my phone in my parking garage at work this morning:

I think I asked when I left my car or picked it up, but I don't remember to be honest. I want to say it was something like $150-$200. Obviously I didn't pay that. I used the Free Detail I won from the Dyno day we had at Cobb last year.
