Need to detail my car in the peninsula

My car is filthy. I haven't washed it in a while. I still have bugs splattered on my front bumper from the last track day.
It needs to be washed, clayed, waxed, vacuumed, etc.
I am thinking of just having someone else do it. Can anyone recommend a detailer that understands how to wash black cars?

Mobile Detailing, I highly recomend this guy, he did my car, did a great job and was much less expensive than I thought:

if you check out the CA thread from autopia, there are several mobile detailers that do a great job, you can even check out their write-ups on the customer cars they did, other than that you can try out jewpac42's suggestion

iBlueVirus are you talking about Leo from detail addicts?

if your still interested in detail addicts, check out their website www.detailaddict.com, they have all sorts of good examples. I don't work there, so im not really promoting anything. Also, if your thinking about getting any parts, speedelement is literally the same building as detail addicts. I just went there today, and i learned quite a lot from Leo about detailing, hes a really nice guy. I just got my headlights restored today there for $25 and bought some detailing stuff from them.

Never been but heard good things about leo at detail addict.

I can personally recommend AC Detailing (aka d00t on the autopia forums). He did a great job on my car last year and he is 100% mobile now so he'd come to you. You can check out some of his work at the autopia forums in the prof details before/after subforum.
