5/5

Based on 200+ reviews

“Love Auto Lust Detailing!! Been going there since they opened. Scott and his team have given me great customer service. Always give the best recommendations for car care. Their turnaround for completion of work is the best!”

 

Maxads4

Porsche Owner

“Scott and his team did a great job of ceramic coating my new truck. They also installed PPF on my hood, front grill and side view mirrors. The price was much less than I had expected. After 6 weeks the water just beads up and runs right off. It also makes washing the vehicle a breeze.”

Jude Werner

Truck Owner

“Always a great job having my LC500 appropriately cleaned for my ceramic coated PPF. If you’re looking for an excellent installer as well as a place to have maintenance washes complete, these are your solution for PPF and ceramic coating”

Justin Anzaldua

Lexus LC500 Owner

“Just had the wheels and brake calipers on my C8 Corvette ceramic coated and the car detailed. It looks fabulous!! Scott did PPF and full ceramic coating 9 months ago and it still looks fantastic! They are absolutely the best!! They care deeply about their work and have unmatched skill!!”

Paul Gaskins

C8 Corvette Owner

“Auto Lust is more expensive than other car detailing companies, but the quality of the work and the results achieved make it worthwhile. They have earned my continued business.”

Roy Taylor

Porsche Owner

“Scott and Josh took care of my 718 Cayman S with a paint correction and ceramic coating (had swirl marks from wash w/ previous owner). They did a great job, and are true professionals. Rates are great!”
