This car belongs to a buddy of mine. He picked up the car a couple months back in rough shape. All four of the factory wheels were bent from hitting curbs and the car was disgustingly dirty. After he sent the car through the mechanic shop, we ordered the newer style M3 wheels with brand new tires for it and put them on.
The interior was pretty dirty, but in good shape underneath all the dirt. The driver seat was beginning to show some wear, so I had my interior repair guy re-dye them to look brand new. The paint was sratched up in a few spots and had tons of swirls which jumped out at you in the sunlight.
To start, I washed the entire car, wheels & wheel wells
Clayed with Kar Kraft clay bar
Degreased and detailed the engine compartment
Complete interior detail/ hit rugs with extractor
Taped up all the moldings & trim with masking tape
Buffed complete exterior w/Optimum Compound by rotary
Buffed complete exterior with
Menzerna Final Polish II mixed with a little RMG
Hand application of EX
Hand application of Natty's Blue
Super Blue dressing on tires & wheel wells
Here are the befores:
Now for the afters:
The color seems a bit of an odd choice to me, though (for a guy, anyway). Great detail!
). It's the weirdly purplish gray interior that turned me off, it's a very subtle thing, but in some light you do notice it.
Wow, that seriously looks like it was just painted! You are gifted. So where can you get Super blue dressing? Does it run in the rain? The mouldings and tires look brand new too. Im surprised how the new 18's look on that car, they look great. And thats sort of a rare interior combo, isnt it? I just love the M cars! So how does it drive?
