A&J's Detail in Buena Park is pretty good.

Their shop is ghetto as hell but they do good work.

Call Paul the owner at 714 812 9151 and let him know Derek from Shelly BMW sent you.

I have no first hand experience with Eric from Envious detailing, but he was recommended to me and I have been talking with him about detailing my JB 128. However, I have seen pictures of his work and the cars came out beautifully, and if you go to their website, there is a before and after picture of a JB 1er. Anyways, he is located in Huntington Beach, so pretty local for you. That's who I am taking my car to right after xmas
