After doing BMW detailing for the past several months, this one is the worst I`ve seen.
The entire finish looks like it was washed with a Brillo pad. The bumper was peppered with stone chips.
Some examples:

Sanded the bumper with 3000 grit and a Snap-On air orbital

Fender Sanding (I also did the hood, but didn`t take pics)

Compounded the bumper (no glaze yet)

Another bumper shot...looks tons better

Compounded the rear bumper

After 2 nights of tough work, the car is compounded. Next is glazing and #26 to finish.

I`ll get some finished pics tonight (unless this ice storm in KC keeps me from getting to the shop).
