    Does anyone know of any Cryo Detailing shop in the Northeast (New England) area?

    I want to have a complete undercarriage, suspension, powertrain detailing done.

    There were also people looking for this on my Porsche forum. I did 855 of mine the hard way....citrus cleaner (Xenit) and a brush.

    $1,700? That is a bit steep.

    Many people enjoy eating apples and oranges, but in the end they are still… just apples and oranges. The R32 is passion fruit. . Live Long and Prosper.

    If you own an exotic like a Ferrari, Porsche Carrerra GT etc. $1700 is nothing.

    That's a bit pricey! I was hoping closer to $1000.

    If I did rent, I could make some money and hook up some friends. And obviously give my R a must needed detail.

    If eveything was about money, we all stop tuning and detailing

    If you think about it 8 hours of work, there dry ice and blaster. Not bad deal for what you get.

    To buy a blaster new starts about $20,000.

    This is very interesting, but definitely very expensive
