I don’t write many reviews, but Mike and the team at Stars In The Ceiling earned this one. What started as a simple ceramic coating turned into a full build on my 2026 Escalade. We ended up doing the starlight headliner, ambient lighting kit, paint correction, ceramic coating, custom wheels, tires, tint, and screen protection. This was a major project and Mike handled it from start to finish personally. The biggest thing that stood out was the communication. Mike kept me updated throughout the entire process, explained every cost, answered every question, and never made me feel like just another customer. You can tell this isn’t just a business to him. It’s his craft. I shopped around before making a decision, but once I saw his work, I didn’t bother calling anyone else. The attention to detail is on another level. Even Mike told me he personally does most of the work because he doesn’t trust shortcuts, and after seeing the finished product, I understand why. The ambient lighting looks factory installed, the wheels completely transformed the look of the Escalade, and the starlight headliner is honestly the centerpiece of the entire build. Every person who gets in the vehicle immediately notices it. What impressed me most is that Mike never rushed the process. There were times when I wanted the vehicle back quickly, but he kept emphasizing doing it the right way instead of the fast way. That’s rare nowadays. If you’re looking for someone to install a starlight headliner, ambient lighting, ceramic coating, wheels, tint, paint correction, or completely transform your vehicle, I can confidently say Mike and Stars In The Ceiling are the real deal. My 2026 Escalade looks better than I imagined. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail exceeded every expectation I had. In a world where a lot of shops overpromise and underdeliver, Mike delivers exactly what he says he will. Thank you, Mike. You’ve earned a customer for life. 👊🔥🚙✨ 11/10 worth every penny.
