`09 Dinan modified 650 detail

[1 Clean WS6]

Hey all!!



Hope life is well for all of my dear friends in Autopia land!! I also hope that all my fellow pro`s are fighting their way through this economic mess...stay strong my friends...this too like all things in life shall pass!! :waxing:



It was yet another rainy day today here in the ATL...imagine that! However, I had the chance to detail this drop dead gorgeous 650 yesterday. It belongs to a regular client of mine whose business I acquired last year. He owns a brace of stunning BMW`s including an Alpina B7 shown in this thread... http://www.autopia.org/forum/pro-details-before-after/114506-07-bmw-alpina-b7-detail.html



He recently purchased this 650 and just finished having a round of Dinan mods performed on it. This beautiful Bimmer has the Dinan tune, cold air, throttle bodies, exhaust as well as front and rear strut braces on it. A perfect car with just enough done to enhance the driving experience. If you know me...then you know this car has the 1 Clean WS6 trifecta: silver paint; German engineering; and a big old V8!!



The car shows a scant 2800 miles on the odo and other than washing had not been touched since delivery.. Other than some very light marring it was in great shape. Below is a description of process and products used for this detail.



Enjoy,

Mike :cool:

Awesome job Mike !!!! It`s great to see your work again.



I was just in Atlanta and didn`t even realize that is where you were from. If I would have known I would have reached out to have a cold one :)

Mike! Greetings, earthling!

very nice work, not easy to get a silver gray to have depth like that!

[ShineTech]

Great job! I agree the paint does have depth.
