Always astonished about your production. This genuinely feels like a big budget TV show but it being a UA-cam channel it also has that personal feel to it. Brilliant
@@AMMO-NYC what's the average production time for a video? I appreciate all the hard work you put into the videos. I've been following you for years and have always loved your content.
Larry driving his cars year round, and taking meticulous care of every component despite how busy he’s been is the reason I still watch every video after more than 10 years
@@AMMO-NYCIs the Bendpak Scissor Lift IP65 Rated or Waterproof of some sort? Can it handle getting wet or soak in water all the time? I’d like to install a lift in my garage and use it for washing the undercarriage of the car during winter.
My favorite thing about Larry is not only his attention to detail but how he seeks out other professionals with the same passion, nerdyness and attention as himself. And on top of that he gets just as into their craft as they do. Pointing out all there clever ingenuity.
This video hits every one of crazy Larry’s perfectionism and his insane attention to his craft. Respect Larry for taking the extreme to levels beyond the human brain. Best channel on utube and the best channel for learning about true auto detailing craft. Just incredible.
It is shocking to me that as much care and precision you have in every video, that there is another level above that for your own car. Unbelievable! Beautiful car, beautiful work.
Brave man installing a clear bra onto fresh paint. Shops around here won't install a clear bra until after about 90 days to ensure the paint is finished off-gassing and completely cured.
some of us just have OCD. once we start we get carried away. I was just going to put PPF on my bumper turned into doing the whole car.. then I got a package in the mail it was my new cell phone with the leftover ppf, I measured cut and wrapped my phone instead of going to get the case and screen protector, just did it myself. 😆 friends were like you're insane..relax! I can't! you're the best. keep up the perfection
I wish I could be as OCD as you about anything in my life, Larry. I mean that in the best way possible. The attention to detail is seriously incredible. Keep up the great work, and thank you for inspiring those of us who are not as "detail"-oriented.
Lol….sees a tiny rust spot and completely refurbishes the entire car. Only AMMO NYC. That’s attention to detail in a category above everything. Nicely done🎉.
This is what you call meticulous cranked up to the max! It's different when it's your own personal car, esp your dream car. I know the feeling with my R8. I treat it with the utmost care despite taking it thru its paces in the twisties or on track. Your R8 looks immaculate! 👌🏾
16:13 - That Hardinge machine? My grandfather founded that company. Wow. Never saw one of their machines before! Thanks for the video. You treat your cars right!
It's all in the details. It's awesome to see someone who is truly passionate about detailing and all the other restorative processes. There are a couple detailing/correction shops in my area and it's crazy how lacking they are in quality when it comes to this work. Truly a work of art.
WoW! I really loved this episode! The thing about the metalwool and wirebrushing the underside was really cool, also the menthol coating and black rust spray on the bolts. The framepro on the black trim made it pop so well, and the deep rich carbon now looks amazing. Loved the stance and fittment of the wheels. The car really really pops now! Looks amazing!
Hi Larry. . . Several years ago, you posted 2 videos on *How to Apply Undercoating* to vehicles, featuring your Porsche 964 (27 Nov 2014) and Chevy Impala SS (15 Dec 2015). After gaining 8 more years of detailing experience, would you still recommend a full undercoating for vehicles in northern climates today? Why, or why not?. . . As always, sir, THANK YOU for having the heart of a teacher! I appreciate your willingness to share professional detailing tips to automotive DIY-ers like myself.
Removing all the branding stickers instantly upped the eyeball appeal. The AMMO on the calipers kind of gives a Chrysler Sebring /Bentley Continental GT kit vibe.
A tip I learned from Auto Fanatic- soak any removable bolts in evapo-rust (for instance, the ones you removed from the under tray) for that extra touch
Watching this video makes me miss spray painting. I used to do the same technique and check over my work like this guy. Great work as always from this bodyshop.
Absolutely incredible how good the car came out. Really shows how important it is to take care of little corrosion spots and defects before it becomes a bigger problem.
Just shows that taking care of one's car is an endless story, even if you're on Larry's level of detailing :D. I've been quite neutral to the R8 before, but the angle at 21:45 with the deep black colours as contrast to the metallic colour made me go "damn this car looks insane". Great work as always Larry!
Larry's crazy OCD attention to detail is why I keep watching his vids. I'm no perfectionist or professional detailer, but when I detail my car, I go beyond what most people usually do, almost to the same detail as what Larry does.
It hits differently when it's your own car 😊 Amazing work this my kind of OCD car cleaning. I love doing this once a year to my car and just spend a few days relaxing enjoying some deep Detailing.
Those guys at the shop are so incredibly skilled in paint and repair. I see so many videos of similar fixes, but haven’t seen anyone go as crazy as this. And for it to come out looking like nothing even happened is even more impressive. These guys are the real deal, they’ve got the forbidden knowledge 😂
the r8 is a masterpiece of a car, i love the whole design and the really "bad" look of the front lights! it's basically a dream car for me, and after the detail she looks so amazing and shiny 100/10.
Sweet ride 😍 Love the fact that it’s a driven car, not a garage queen. Also in my opinion nothing beats working on ones own car. Well done Larry ‼️👍✌️☮️
R8 is such a nicely designed car. Surely one of the best looking Audi. 3:00 I've been told to not nerer use any steel brush on aluminium. Only stainless steel or brass. For corrosion reasons, such as your hood.
Always loved the r8 it is one of the best looking cars, I would have to choose between this and 911 and it would be a sophies choice 😃 so Larry you have a great taste 👌🏼🙂
OMG, that was a blast from the past.....1988 VW scirroco GT. Forgot all about that car....I used to love them. Plus that tyre your right never heard of them. 12 days of labour ! WoW 👍
Absolutely love watching your videos and all the information you throw into each episode. Your perfectionism is so addicting to me because I wish I had the time to do that with my vehicles. Keep up the nerdyness and education, love it love it love it. God bless you Larry.
It's great to see that the dream car is a reality. I remember the first videos where /DRIVE CLEAN washed the Blackbird R8. Been following your videos since then.
I like that despite the snowball effect of a tiny bit of rust and all the work, he didn't go crazy enough to replace the blemished rusty rotors since it would just come clean with some aggressive braking. This man knows.
I still remember the video when you bought this r8, amazing work as always, recently got vredestein tyres on my 2011 audi a8L d4 love the performance 💯
Hey Larry as a kid who like vehicle i see some similarities between us i like our vehicles and take care of them a lot and mostly when i any single scratch my eyes started to watering and going crazy to make it better I see them as my younger brothers your tricks help me a lot I been watching you for so many years and nice video your video are always good
Just a little tip: if you use a torque wrench to tighten the wheel bolts to the correct torque instead of use the impact wrench it will be easier to loosen the bolt next time. 👌😉 After i started with that I never had an issue with getting the wheels off the car has been driven on salty winter roads. 👍
Looks great. So weird to those of us in CA, that we don't have to worry about winter season destroying metal in our cars. A lot easier to keep them clean. It is inspiring to see your videos. I think I need to detail my A7 now :) .
I had Chris at lathewerks do a shifter for my 987S and its an absolute work of art. Worth every penny and well worth the wait for it to be handmade. One of the best in biz.
Always love your techy beats - we have a proper techno/tech-house lover in the house I suspect ;) perfect compliment to the content, i dont know why I get such catharsis from watching someone else wash their car, but, I do..
When Larry wanted to do a winter cleaning and turned out a semi restoration job. I only dust off my summer tires and wash my car with dish soap and call it a day 💀 love it
Nice work, Larry! I've been using the Vredestein snows on my F-Type SVR - I'm practically plowing snow with my front splitter. Those tires are highly recommended if you drive the R8 in deep snow. Now I just need to pull my under tray to see if I have rust...😵
This is a great video, showing how PPF is not protecting your car and rather creating more potential for bigger issues that you were spending a lot of money on
Always astonished about your production. This genuinely feels like a big budget TV show but it being a UA-cam channel it also has that personal feel to it. Brilliant

@@AMMO-NYC hello sir. Question.. why detailers like you barely or rarely take the wheels off the car to clean??
IMO it’s what the engineers would have wanted for the car, driven and well looked after
Props on actually driving the car - too many of these are garage queens. They're meant for the road!
@@markae0 Only entitled illiterate people call other people idiots for driving the vehicles they own, when they want to.
Audi R8 as investition? U mean ferrari or bugatti?
Yeah idk about garage queens, R8s are technically "entry level" super cars, alongside cars like the Lamborghini Gallardo or zo6 'vette.

Bro got the ocd gang lol
I was thinking the same. I would never of thought to use a laser level for badges. Insane
car guys are the best, I have met some of the best people through automotive, it takes a certain level of dedication to make it in the auto world.
So that's it? What are we, some kind of OCD Squad?
@@rjmari probs lmfao
Loved the snowball effect from the tiny corrosion to a 12 day restoration.
It's the typical "while I'm at it, I might as well..." every car guy knows.

Thanks for watching!
Cleanest R8 in the northeast! 😮Can't say enough good things about what you and the guys did to this car!

The stance of the R8 now with the spacer make the car look so much better. It definitely has the supercar look now.
I've gotten it figured out. You are the Bob Ross + Mr. Rodgers of the detailing world.
Lol….sees a tiny rust spot and completely refurbishes the entire car. Only AMMO NYC. That’s attention to detail in a category above everything. Nicely done🎉.
I wasn't expecting the almost 'full-refresh' on the R8! Love it! Really appreciate your own appreciation for this car! Never sell it!
That shift knob is so cool. Great video Larry. Love all the extra you do to make things perfect

Yes, on daily driven vehicles still a viable option for sure with fluid film being relatively inexpensive for a DIY’er.

man i love the old audi r8 it just looks so timeless and its so satisfying to watch getting it detailed
"He's my kind of crazy and the guy's nuts and I love it". Great episode. The effort you put in to detailing a car is second to none.
This is why we love you Larry.
Larry you’re a mad man, that is one beautiful car! Well worth the weeks of effort!
Amazing work as always Larry, you and your team of experts did a amazing job! Thanks for sharing all the details
Glad you enjoyed it!

this video just put me onto car maintenance detailing chemistry and history of the vredestein tire i couldnt be more grateful
Such a gentleman with your cars love it
Loved this video. R8 looks incredibly nice to drive. The only time I decide to clean my daily is by watching your clips. Great motivator.
Loved the quick photo of the Scirocco, I’ve owned 4 of them in my lifetime, a ‘76, two ‘82’s, and a 1987 16V. They are so much fun to drive. ✌️😎
It hits differently when it's your own car 😊 Amazing work this my kind of OCD car cleaning. I love doing this once a year to my car and just spend a few days relaxing enjoying some deep Detailing.
Impressive that you find people who are as detail oriented as you.
I have probably watched the Porsche videos with the guys from JB like ten times. Nice to see them again!
Larry, You're the best! You give so much care to the cars (not only your car)! Very impressed to see you doing your labour with so much love!
Those guys at the shop are so incredibly skilled in paint and repair. I see so many videos of similar fixes, but haven’t seen anyone go as crazy as this.

Good for him, he's a hard worker obviously and totally deserves to have/enjoy/baby this car.

Fantastic work yet again Larry! This video was so good I actually sat down and watched it on TV, it deserved to be watched on the big screen!
Sweet ride 😍 Love the fact that it’s a driven car, not a garage queen. Also in my opinion nothing beats working on ones own car. Well done Larry ‼️👍✌️☮️

As always awesome content thanks for your time to do this video big fan of your channel
For this type of work, dry ice cleaning would be appropriate. This would really be a must have for your workshop in the future.
Always loved the r8 it is one of the best looking cars, I would have to choose between this and 911 and it would be a sophies choice 😃 so Larry you have a great taste 👌🏼🙂
OMG, that was a blast from the past.....1988 VW scirroco GT.
Forgot all about that car....I used to love them.
Plus that tyre your right never heard of them.
12 days of labour !
WoW
👍
The exact spec of my dream car! Would love to own one sometime in my life. Glad you are driving it regularly instead of keeping in the garage.
Wow, the results are epic! You really went down the rabbit hole on this one, but so worth it.
The editing and music was spot on.
Larry, NEVER use an impact with a lug nut key...ever! Don't ask me why I know! Love your videos, keep 'em coming!!!
I love and appreciate the level of insanity on your own car. Turned out great!
I saw all videos of you Larry since you start always amazing and motive videos keep up dude
The level of perfection is crazy. Love it.
My kind of nuts 👏🏽 great work. Colour match / blends look perfect too 🏁
18:06 ECS tuning…love being a 15 minute drive from them, same day pickup is 👌
Larry's R8 and the R8 that came out in the first iron man movie are my favorite R8s in the world
my favorite R8 is the Final Fantasy 15 Kingsglaive custom R8
Absolutely stunning R8! Love watching your videos keep them coming!
Probably the best video you have done in the last 2 years IMO that R8 is mental!
Loved the video. The attention to detail is insane, love it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely love watching your videos and all the information you throw into each episode. Your perfectionism is so addicting to me because I wish I had the time to do that with my vehicles. Keep up the nerdyness and education, love it love it love it. God bless you Larry.

This video has me locked in watching every single detail. I think this has been my #1 video from you. All of the past ones come in Second place. LOL
Always surprised how hard east coast winters are on cars. This minor resto turned out fantastic though!
NICE !! ....Very Nice ....... A Great job Larry Ang A Great Vlog !! ..........Bless You & Your Team..........Peace
Larry! You should look into nickel plating electrolysis for the nuts and bolts.
It's super easy and a game changer.

This is so perfectly awesome, no words for it. Love the R8!!
This is a great video, showing how PPF is not protecting your car and rather creating more potential for bigger issues that you were spending a lot of money on
Ummm, he reapplied ppf to the whole car this time around. It was the installer that created the damage, not the ppf itself.
i loved this video and i watch just about all your videos but i loved this one even more for some reason . great work .
FANTASTIC VIDEO LARRY 👍👍LOVE THE WAY YOU LOOK AFTER ALL YOUR VEHICLES 👍👍😀😀
Love the work. Were the scratches on the right side engine bay carbon covers ( 19:49 ) too deep to tackle? Great vid as always!
