    Smile 2004 BMW M3s Detailed... PICS

    It`s been awhile since I last posted here, so I thought I`d show my latest detail on my brother`s and mine M3s (LINK BELOW). I used the entire line of Menzerna products for the paint, Zaino for the leather and Blue Coral for the carpets. I love the outcome and the paint is soooo smooth and wet looking in person. What do you all think about tinting the windows for both looks and hiding the TVs in the headrests? My other question is what "topper" could I put on my car to add wetness, durability etc? Best wishes and give me your comments. Thanks!

    Nice car dude! Glad you could detail it. Def should come out to a meet for DC/Autopia sometime in the future. I suggest maybe Souveran or #16 Meguiars. Might wanna do some searched to find out what has worked well in the past.

    Tinting would look sweet! You should drop that sucker and rims ... blah blah

    From a BMW freak, gotta love the duo! They look great by all standards(sorry I am biased!). Like all German vehicles brake dust is a real nightmare-what tool are you using to get into the small crevices? I have a 94 and BBS rims that look great when clean, but are PIA`s.

    Also-what did you have done to get DVD projection onto the OBC screen? I don`t think this is an OEM option from memory. Anyway keep them up they will treat you right for a long time. I have 180k miles on mine and it still tops out over 150mph(I track race once in a while).

    Thanks for the kind comments. I just use a micro fiber cloth for the rims, I put a coat of wax on it every 5-10 washes so the break dust isn`t too bad. As for the TV/DVD on the factory screen you are partially correct. It is an option in Europe, but it is illegal in the US. There is a company TVonNav (www.tvonnav.com) that sells the kit for $800-$1000 that allows over-the-air TV and DVD/XBox/PS2 input all on the factory screen... great product and great people at the company. Best part of all its a BMW part and plug and play... can`t beat it.

    Very nice cars, but I think almost any product you would put on a car of that caliber, garage kept and that new(2004) would look good:dunno

    Man I love M3`s to death ...great job but sorry to say the lighting and picture taking needs some help. I `m no pro by any means but try keeping the sun behind you and/or using force flash when taking pics of your car. Not trying to burn you , just trying to help. Aloha
