Default Interior Detailing Review : Rhyme N Rhythm

My cars being going to Sachin Gurani at Rhyme & Rhythm for a while now. I'm not one to be easily pleased, yet his quality of work is so good that he can count me in as a return customer! I thought it'd be a good time to put up a quick review, as the C just returned from an interior detailing job last weekend.

Thanks to Mad Monkey for referring Rhythm & Rhyme to me. Highly recommended for interior cleaning and detailing. He also has an audio / accessory shop, but I have no experience with that department. Located at Colaba.

I believe Sahil had also tried out their services for his BMW. Maybe he can comment on this thread as well?

1,800 bucks for the job. I'll let the results speak for themselves. Does she look like a 4.5 year old car that's run 60,000 kms?

Intentionally used the flash to make the roof look bright. Notice any spots? There aren't any:

Tommorow, I'll put up pictures of the exterior work done by Pervez.

Looks great. For 1800 Rupees, how are the "neglected" places doing? Under the seat, inside the glove-box, cubby holes, and various other hard-to-reach places?

Except for the gearknob..No.

A wood knob would look nice methinks.

Is there an oily polish residue that most of these dashboard polishs leave?

Nice. Now questions:

-Where exactly is he located at colaba?
-Can you gimme a name and contact person (or pm me the same)?
-How quick do they give appointments?
-How much time does it take? Do they allow you to stand there?
-Do they have pick up and drop facility?
-What other services do they offer?


You should have clicked some before pictures as well so as to compare.

What is the mark on the rear door speaker cover (a the bottom- pic4)? There's even a patch in the same place on the front door speaker- pic5.

I have been to Rhyme and Rhythm once to get our E Class detailed inside and out.
Some points - They go over everything! They even try to remove all the dust in and around the badges to give it a clear look.
It cost us around Rs5,500 to get the interior and exterior detailing done, and trust me when I say that I am impressed.
Our 4 year old car, actually looked better than a new car when they were done. The only thing that ticked me off, was that the interiors smelled funny for a few days, but that was taken care of.
They removed most of the light scratches, cleaned the headlamps, interiors, everything!
Last time I saw the car, she was still gleaming.

Time period: 1 - 2 days depending on what work one gets done there.
Call him up, he knows about T-BHP, you can stay there if you like (no place to sit though), or give them the car and pick it up later.
If you call him one-two days before to book an appointment, it should be good.

I really want to send the Fiesta there. She deserves a good detailing.

The brothers are excellent at all they do, including audio. GTO I am definite the place is called Rhyme N Rhythm and not the other way around.

Your car looks very clean and fresh. Good job done. 1800 is not expensive.

Tejas. That patch is the netting behind which the Speaker is located.

Sam is right, It is Rhyme and Rhythm.

Thanks for the info guys.

@Cyrus, i'm talking about the line below the speaker oval.

Another question: Fixed rates or does one have to haggle?

Neat job. Guess 1800 includes an exterior wash as well.
There is one called car spa here in chennai. I am using their services for the last 5 months. They charged me an annual fee of Rs.4,800/- for 12 visits. Worth every paisa.

Car looks excellent and for the complete detailing 1800 bucks is decent charges. Wish they have a wing in Bangalore
