Detailing Dynamics

Well where do I start? I recently purchased a brand new sedan, white in color. After a couple of weeks of driving it on our wonderful NY roads, I started to notice small chips in the front bumper and there was one even on the hood. I guess you don’t really realize how much junk the car in front of you kicks up until you stop and notice the damage on your own vehicle. In any event, I started looking for a product that would protect the paint on my vehicle as well as a place that would install such product.
At first, I came up empty. There was no place in my area (Dutchess County, NY) that knew about, much less would install Xpel (paint protective film). Most places were way down in the city and Long Island. So I started looking there and I came across Detailing Dynamics in Mineola. The place is about a two hour drive from my home with that dreadful city traffic and all so at first I was hesitant but the more and more I looked, people had nothing but good things to say about the place so I decided to take a gamble and give them a shot.
I gotta say it was the best decision I’ve made in a while. I ended up sending an email to their website and within a few hours I got a call back from Eddie. I explained to him my issues with the car and he talked to me at length about Xpel and what it could do. What sold me was the fact that he actually recommended that I not get certain areas of the car wrapped since they are unlikely to sustain damage from road debris. Most guys would try to up sell you on things you don’t need just to make a buck. But it seemed that Eddie was genuinely interested in getting my vehicle protected and meeting my specific needs as a customer. So I made an appointment to bring the car in.
The day I got to his shop, I was immediately impressed by the cleanliness of the place. Most shops that I’ve been to having anything to do with the automotive industry and usually dark, dank, greasy places with tools laying everywhere. Not Detailing Dynamics, this place is spotless and pristine. Its almost as if they have a cleaning crew stashed somewhere that tidys the place up every few minutes. In short order, Eddie came out from the back and we went over a few things about the car. I was treated to a «backstage» tour of the place and if I had ANY doubts about the level of work that these guys do, this is when they were all erased. These guys must have had several million dollars worth of high end super cars that they were working on easy. I’m talking everything from high end Porsches, Ferraris, Lambos. Some cars that I never even heard of cause they’re so expensive lol. Seeing all of these high end super toys and the level of professionalism exhibited by everyone there, I knew that my humble Audi A6 was in good hands.
I spoke with Eddie and Matt again, they’re both super great guys and very down to earth. You can tell that Eddie is the jokester of the two. I explained to them that in addition to the XPel, I would like to get my brake calipers painted also. They said, «sure, no problem.» Eddie explained to me how that works and what they do. Shortly after that we exchanged keys (yes, the provided me a loaner car which I didn’t expect) and I was on my way home.
Several days later, I got the call that my vehicle was ready to be picked up. When I arrived back at the shop, I spoke with Matt who showed me the work on the car. To say that the attention to detail and craftsmanship that these guys pour into their work is incredible would be an understatement. The car looks fantastic. The red brake calipers against the white body makes the car really pop. The Xpel was installed in such a fashion that it doesn’t even look like its there at all.
All in all I was thrilled with the level of service I received at Detailing Dynamics. So much so that the next time I need anything done vehicle related I will gladly travel the two hours down to give them my business. You don’t often find people like Eddie and Matt who pour their heart and soul into what they do for a living but when you do, its a breath of fresh air. Like I mentioned previously my Audi A6 was far being the most expensive car there. Far from it, but I got a sense that my car was treated with the same exact car as the $ 300k car sitting next to it.
Thanks guys, you made a customer for life here.

Had about 3 dents on my trunk lid after an unforgiving tree decided to drop a branch. It’s not 100 perfect but it is damn close considering. I would not hesitate to recommend or return to them!

So…
A young gentleman came to my office in 1994 to clean and detail my 1992 red Audi 100CS. He brought his white Chevy Astrovan, replete with a fully mounted, 55 gallon drum of water with which to power wash the exterior. He would stay the entire day, by himself, and carefully detail, clean and brighten every part of this car, including the wheel wells and engine compartment. He would spend an average of 8 – 9 hours every time he came. He only asked for $ 165.00 for this level of effort and commitment.
I found out later he is an ex-​Boeing engineer, who couldn’t see himself sitting behind a desk for the rest of his life.
Today, 21 years later, I picked up my BMW convertible from him, having been freshly detailed. In his extensive shop, he has a partner and 8 employees. He has, in the front area, 5 cars besides mine he is currently working on, valued at more than 8 million dollars. In the back area, another 1 – 2 million. He has become recognized as one of the very best in a business where most people think $ 99 is overpriced to have a vehicle properly cared for.
There’s a lesson here for all.
I am fortunate to be counted among his satisfied customers. His commitment is something I reflect upon almost everyday.

Awesome place! Just got my windows tinted and interior lights installed on my Fusion. They finished this in less than 24 hours! It was great and Eddie is a great guy to do business with. He gave me websites to look for wheels and tires. He was very easy going and never pushed me into buying anything I didn’t want for the car. I cannot wait to continue detailing my car with them.

Eddie and Matt, the owners are really fantastic and committed to customer service. They are not cheap by any means. If you want to save money you’re better off at one of the lesser shops.
They do the top cars in the New York area (including some that go on the big rallies such as Goldrush Rally) and devote tremendous amounts of time and attention to their work. They also never push extra modifications and will often dissuade you from doing something that they think is expensive and unnecessary.
The work they have done on my cars is simply exemplary and beyond reproach. For example, the XPEL Ultimate full clear bras they have installed on my cars are undetectable with no visible seams. To make that happen, they removed substantially all of the exterior parts of the car and put the seams of the wrap underneath them or around the doors, hood, fenders, trunk so that there are no cutlines visible. The work they do is so painstakingly detailed and careful that it took two of their employees three full days to wrap one of my cars. I was there so I saw it happen. Eddie’s work ethic is so strong that he came in the day after Christmas, when the shop was supposed to be closed, to start the XPEL wrap of one of my cars.
Also their name is a misnomer. They are not a detailing only shop. Rather, they are a full custom shop that does electronic mods (such as laser jammers, hidden radar detectors with display hidden in rearview mirror, front and rear parking cameras, etc), performance mods and all the detailing stuff such as XPEL clear bras, ClearPlex for the windshield, tints, caliper and rotor hat painting and the usual detailing services. The quality of their work and loyal customer base is second to none — the shop is always filled with top line exotic and semi exotic cars and really does look like a car show.
If you are looking for the best in the business for mods go there. I am happy I did.

I normally don’t write reviews but for Eddie & Matt I’ll make the exception. Detailing Dynamics is the only company I trust to wrap my cars and do any automotive electronics work.
I have had all three of my Lamborghini’s (LP570, LP700 and LP720) wrapped there, along with my Porsche TTS. Aside from wrapping the cars they have also added laser jammers, hardwired radar detectors and tints.
They’re among the most trusted and well respected shops in Long Island.

The best in the business

While looking for a good place to get my car tinted, I came across Detailing Dynamics.
I called in and I had a lot of questions. Their staff took the time to answer my questions.
The window tinting went very well. They kept my car for the whole day. It’s been a few months and the tints still look good.
My only complaint is that I was told my vehicle would be washed as well. When I went to pick it up it wasn’t and when I inquired, they said they didn’t have enough time. My advise is don’t offer it if you can’t guarantee it.
Other than the car wash issue, the level of work was excellent.

You can’t get better detailing than these guys, absolutely the best as you can see by the reviews. I took my Audi RS5 there since purchase, couldn’t have been happier. Matt and Eddie work hard to keep you satisfied and the work there is second to none, When you go there you’ll see the quality of cars there, From super small to supercars, they do it all. I went and saw a Toyota Prius side by side with Lamborgini’s and GT3’s. No matter what car they will treat it same, with quality care.

All I can say is what a great job! I appreciated Matt’s honesty and friendliness. You can tell Matt and his staff love cars with the way they took care of mine. They even got the bugs off my front bumper that have been a thorn in my side for ages. The thing I appreciate most is how each of his staff walked over and introduced themselves and shook my hand. Most places will just bring your car out and hand you a bill and not even say thank you for your business. Matt is the direct opposite. Great guy, great staff, great job. Highly recommended!

I searched and found Matt at Detailing Dynamics after an unfortunate experience with paint protection film on my brand new car. I needed someone to remove the film, correct the paint and reinstall new film and I was very nervous about finding someone would would take care of my car as good as I would if I had the time. Immediately upon speaking with Matt I knew I’d found an expert. He was knowledgable, professional, courteous and prompt. It was a bit of a distance to travel and I knew I’d have to leave the car for several days but somehow I could tell I’d found the right place.
Upon dropping off my car Matt walked us through his shop and we spent a great deal of time discussing cars — his own, ones he has worked on in the past and ones currently in the shop. I could see from a car similar to my own that the quality of his work was excellent. I felt very comfortable leaving my car in his hands. Throughout the week Matt kept me updated on the progress of my car and what was going on. At the end he emailed me some photos and they looked good.
The real test was seeing the car in person which came when I arrived a few days later to pick up my car (covered and out of the way). When they brought my car out I was truly amazed — the paint, the film, the wheels were all astounding. The guys in the shop (they were not open when I dropped off) were all courteous and diligently working.
It’s truly refreshing to see not just an owner but an entire team of professionals who like what they do and go the extra mile to do things right. If you are detail oriented, if you worry about your cars like you would a person, if you value being treated right and having work done correctly the FIRST time, then Detailing Dynamics is hands down where you want to go for detailing, cleaning, and paint protection film. I don’t have first hand experience with their other work but based on what I can see I would vouch for that too.
There’s no question where I’ll be bringing my cars from now on. Thanks a million guys!

The guys did the tint and 3M protective film on my new Audi S5. Flawless job. They will be the only ones detailing my car in the future.

When it comes to the business of customizing cars, Eddie and Matt are unlike no other. I do not just put them in the box of just detailing a car. That’s just a part of their business. Their level of expertise and detail to their line of work is like no other I have personally dealt with. No matter how small or big the client, they always have a high level of respect, honesty and dedication.
I respect how they run their business and they will have me as a client for a very long time.

This is hands down the best detail shops on the East Coast. My husband did research galore and only would bring cars here. Eddie and Matt are super nice to deal with and we have brought both my AUDI Q 5 in for a wash and detail and my husband’s car a new Nissan GT-​R in for both just washes and wash and full details. They use the finest products, take their time and your car will come out of the shop looking better and shinier than it did when you picked it up from the Showroom!

The best, and highly professional. Went to get my 2010 Camaro’s paint conditioned and detailed after many ill guided automatic car wash trips left it with bad spider webbing all over. Picked up car without one hint of spider webbing. Highly recommend them to anyone who is serious about their car and wants it done the right way first not by some random car wash lathering on layers of cheap wax and calling it «detailing».

These guys are the best detailing crew in the USA. Worked with them to do some paint protection on my family’s new Porsche Panamera 4S and their work is flawless. Eddie (one of the owners) is incredibly nice and takes pride in his work. Last time I was there, they were working on a few new Ferraris, a couple of Lamborghinis, and a couple of Porsche GTs. They are often being flow cross-​country to detail customer’s cars for competition, yet, they treat every car like it’s priceless. Check these guys out for the best tint, paint protection, and detailing you’ll find anywhere. Not inexpensive but well, well worth it.
