Detail shop near White Plains

Anyone know of a good shop or service to do basic clay bar, polish & wax?

My co worker and I both have daily driven (even in snow) F80s and we want to bring some life back into the paint, but don't need some 45 stage process....they're daily drivers.

Enthusiast Detail in Mamroneck is down the street from my office but they seem to have almost exclusively exotics there...we just don't need some crazy process with $400/ jar wax.

Also concerned about a shop using too abrasive products that either A. cut the clear coat too much or B. have some risk of shitty application that shows swirls after the wax wears off.

Sorry for rambling. Thx

Indeed, Enthusiast is great but the asking price is too high for regular cars. I've had Bramex on Mill Street in Port Chester do my details. They did a great job of restoring the shine on my M5 and nice job on my M3. Less than half of what Enthusiast charges. They have different options and add-ons. I've seen a few M3/4s there. The shop in the long drive way to the right has Ms all day so I'm assuming that's why. But I've also seen a few new Mercedes and Porsche dealer cars there.

If you can make a trip to Ridgefield, NJ to @Apexautocarenj I think we can work something out on your budget for a Full decontamination, 1 step polish, and Collinite wax.

Curious, how much is enthusiast details? Also, you might want to try Chris Breezy in New Ro. I've heard good things and lots of mid-range cars there (i.e. M3s / AMGs etc)
