First, sorry about some of the pictures. (bad angles and stuff)
The car was in pretty good shape except for tear & wear. Garage kept and washed weekly by the owner. Didn`t ask what year it is.

Excellent job on both! I really like that older 7, just love the lines on that car! Love the 18" wheels too, those 16" BBS style most wear are particularly evil when it comes to cleaning.
Just FYI, you need to use a cutting pad with Optimum to get 2.5 performance.

Yeah, the 18" M Sport wheels are very easy to clean and look nice on the car too. I`m with you Scott. I like the old 7 much more than the new 7. The lines on the old car are just clean while the new one is all over the place.
Nice work on both rides. I`m really liking the carbon black.

I really like that X5, the hood shoot is just amazing.
Its pretty funny, when I see an X5 on the road or parked I really don`t like the looks of them but when I see one here, like the one you detailed so nicely I think "whoa, that`s hot!"

The X5 looks amazing. Excellent work. I think that`s the best colour for one of those. That first shot is almost like the car has a mirror instead of black paintwork!
The grills make the front look "angry".
