Okay br/o/s, I got a really good deal a 2006 E90 3 series from a guy I knew in college who needed money fast. It's nice, and in decent shape mechanically but the problem is that it's fucking filthy inside. I'm talking years of sand, road salt, trash and stale fries all over the interior and stains on the leather and shit. I went at it for a couple hours but I could barely make a dent and my shitty wet/dry vac couldn't even suck up a lot of the crap between the seats.

I've never had a car this dirty, and I'm thinking I should hand it off to a professional for cleaning because... fuck, man. But I don't know who you take a car to that's so dirty; will a detailer be pissed and charge me out the ass? I don't need to eat off it I just want it to look like a luxury car again. What would you do?

Where do you live?

There is a detailer in my area literally called uncle mike's and it is a fat black guy with a small pet chihuahua that will come to you and legitimately spend 6+ hours making your car look IMMACULATE. I had never seen anything like it before in my life. It probably costs around $300-$400, to be fair

Interior:
Buy a device for steam cleaning furniture (or rent it) to clean the leather, then recondition it.

Trim is hard to clean, sometimes you have to pull it and re-clear coat it or paint it.

Exterior is harder in general, lots of time and detailing products go into restoring paint. BUT if you learn how to do it, you can correct a cars paint for under $300.

Take it to a detailer, you can spend $100-$200 and get it back in tip-top shape.

Provided there isn't shit or semen all over the inside, the detailer isn't going to be pissed, if anything, they'll like it because it will be rewarding work.
