Southern Rod & Custom Automotive Detailing Studio isn’t your average detail shop — and we don’t aim to be.

We specialise in premium automotive detailing, paint correction and paint protection for people who genuinely care about their vehicles.

From daily drivers to weekend toys, prestige cars, 4WDs, muscle cars and everything in between, every vehicle gets the same attention to detail and care.

So what makes us premium?

It’s not just the products we use. It’s the time, experience, knowledge and attention to detail that goes into every vehicle.

We don’t rush jobs, cut corners or rely on marketing hype. We assess every vehicle individually and tailor the process to what it actually needs.

Premium detailing is about more than making a car look clean. It’s about making it look right — and protecting it properly.

📩 If you’re genuinely interested, get in touch with us and we’ll happily put you in direct contact with the owner.

We get asked this all the time…

“Do you only detail hot rods and custom cars?”

The answer is absolutely not.

While Southern Rod & Custom is renowned for building some of Australia’s finest hot rods, muscle cars and custom vehicles, our Automotive Detailing Centre is here for everyone.

Whether you drive a brand-new family SUV, your daily commuter, a work ute, a weekend toy, or a cherished classic, every vehicle receives the same level of care, attention to detail and craftsmanship.

From comprehensive interior and exterior detailing, paint correction and machine polishing, through to premium Modesta ceramic coatings, our goal is simple – to help every customer keep their vehicle looking its absolute best and protected for years to come.

No matter what you drive, we treat it as if it were our own.

So if you’ve been wondering whether we work on “normal” vehicles… the answer is yes. In fact, we detail far more daily drivers than most people realise.

If your car deserves a little attention, we’d love to help.

Twelve months. 20,000 kilometres. Still doing exactly what it was designed to do.

This Toyota RAV4 came to us straight from the dealership a year ago to receive a Modesta ceramic coating. After 12 months of daily driving and around 20,000km on Australian roads, it’s back with us for its annual inspection and maintenance.

The result? The gloss is still exceptional, the surface is incredibly slick, and the coating is continuing to perform exactly as it should. Dirt releases easily, washing is quicker, and the paint still has that deep, rich finish that made the owner fall in love with it on day one.

This is what sets Modesta apart.

A ceramic coating isn’t just about making a car look great when it’s first applied. It’s about how it performs years down the track. We don’t choose Modesta because of flashy marketing or unrealistic lifetime warranty claims. We choose it because we’ve seen the long-term results, time and time again.

When installed correctly and maintained properly, Modesta continues to protect your paint, preserve its appearance, and make ownership easier long after many other coatings have lost their edge.

If you’re investing in a new vehicle—or simply want to protect the one you already own—choose a coating that’s proven itself in the real world, not just on a brochure.

Not all ceramic coatings are created equal.

Over the years, we’ve had countless opportunities to test, inspect and maintain vehicles coated with many different brands. That’s exactly why we chose to become a Modesta installer.

Modesta isn’t the cheapest coating on the market, and it isn’t designed to be.

It’s designed for owners who want exceptional performance, incredible gloss and genuine long-term protection.

The technology behind Modesta is different. Rather than simply leaving a sacrificial layer on the paint, its advanced formulations create a coating that delivers remarkable depth, hydrophobic performance, chemical resistance and durability. The finish has a richness that’s difficult to describe until you see it in person.

What impresses us most isn’t how a freshly coated car looks—it’s how it looks years later.

We regularly inspect vehicles we coated three, four and even five years ago, and with the correct maintenance they’re still turning heads. That’s the kind of real-world performance we believe in.

These days the ceramic coating market is flooded with products promising lifetime warranties and unbelievable claims. Our advice is simple: don’t buy a coating because of the warranty. Buy it because of the technology, the installer behind it, and its proven performance over time.

At Southern Rod & Custom Automotive Detailing Studio, we don’t choose products based on marketing hype. We choose them because our reputation is attached to every vehicle that leaves our workshop.

That’s why we trust Modesta.

Because premium vehicles deserve premium protection.

Fresh off the showroom floor and straight into the studio 🙌

This brand new Hyundai Palisade was driven straight from the dealership to us to receive Modesta paint protection before hitting the road properly.

Starting with protection from day one is one of the best things you can do for a new car — keeping the paint looking glossier for longer, making it easier to wash and helping protect it from everyday wear.

If you’ve got a new car on the way and want to look after it properly from the start, get in touch and let’s line it up.

As we approach the end of the financial year, now is the perfect time for businesses to invest in the appearance and protection of their vehicles.

Whether it’s a single company car, a fleet of work utes, trucks, delivery vehicles or sales vehicles, professional detailing helps maintain your business assets, protect resale value and ensure your vehicles represent your brand in the best possible way.

Your vehicles are often the first thing customers see. A clean, well-presented vehicle sends a message that you take pride in your business and attention to detail matters.

From interior deep cleans and paint correction through to ceramic coatings and ongoing maintenance programs, we can tailor a solution to suit your business needs.

If you’ve been considering freshening up your fleet or company vehicles before EOFY, now is a great time to get in touch and discuss how we can help.

Protect your investment. Present your business professionally. Drive into the new financial year looking your best.

This Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S was in the studio recently for a full interior and exterior detail, along with a machine polish to really bring the paintwork back to life.

While the vehicle was already in great condition, the paint had lost some of its depth and gloss from regular use. After a thorough wash and decontamination process, we carried out a machine polish to enhance the finish and bring back that deep, reflective shine AMG owners love.

Inside, every surface was cleaned and refreshed, leaving the cabin looking and feeling as good as the exterior.

Not every vehicle we work on is a classic or a show car. We detail everything from daily drivers and family SUVs through to high-end performance vehicles, always with the same level of care and attention to detail.

If your vehicle could use some TLC, we’d love to help. Get in touch to discuss the right detailing package for your car.
