    • Wheel arch detailed
    • Paint of the wheel hub and bolts
    • Full clean of wheels
    • Exhaust pipe polishing
    • Engine detail
    • Full interior detail
    • Leather restoration in front seats and some detailes
    • New leather in the steering wheel (LOL)

    Could you please share what you used to repaint the key surround? I have the exact same problem on a Cayman. The rubbery paint just flakes off everything.
