I posted this thread about my detailing experience on delivery. He came back and did a little more this week and took some pics in the sun. Not the best photography but shows off the car a little better. I am honestly impressed with my car's paint...

Your sporting the same marker light setup as me. JDM's on the front and US on the back. I have the JDM's for the back but I don't know if I am gonna install them or not. They look pretty good as is.

Josh is in Dallas but he comes to Houston about once a month to work on various cars. I picked him initially because a guy from Cali referred him to me - I saw his work and asked for a referral in Houston. Also his rates for the dealer prep work were better than most of the others I asked. It isn't cheap, but not crazy either. His site is http://www.ottmanndetailing.com/
It works for me bc I like to do some detailing on my own and he can do what I can't every so often. He was supposed to do my mom's car and my G35 this week but no hotels for him to stay at due to the hurricane and my place is a mess with only my bed and a creaky couch - looking for a new place as I write. As for the color, yeah it is gorgeous but I am eagerly awaiting to see the lone Titanium Houston nagtroc car soon. There was too much doubt to go with it and now I am worried I might like it more...

that has sealed the deal changing my black order for DMG Yeah I have seen a couple blacks and honestly it isn't anything great - it is black and the car looks good, but imo the DMG is more impressive. I think the Titanium will have the same effect. Metallic paint is good for this car. Oh my detailer said he did a white one as well and it too is mnetallic and he liked it more than the DMG. I don't like white but that metallic pearl white is the exception. -------------------- 2009 Nissan GT-R, Premium Edition, Gunmetal/Black, Clear front markers, HKS America mid-pipe

That seals the deal -- you have to go to OTS on the 18th with everyone else!! Which means you can't go out the night before...sorry. Haha. Thanks for the info on Josh. -------------------- 09-TITANIUM

Josh did my white one in Dallas before I took delivery. I found him after reading your thread, so I should say "thanks". He did a great job and I have added 3 more coats of Zaino. The pearl in the white paint really pops with enough Zaino.
Love your DMG as well. My 2nd favorite color... although I have yet to see a Ti in person. It may compete for #1. -------------------- 2009 Ivory Pearl GT-R
