Photos from today Panels flattened with 1500 - 3000 - 6000 wet & dry then buffed back up. We like mega wax !!!!!! ( From BMW) As you can see they have painted the back side of the wings as well as sealed them.    Now that is a good job!!!

Exactly, don't rush it, even if its not ready for Sunday, or not ready for show and shine, you don't want to damage something or have to do something twice.

No i will not rush, its BMW that is putting car in for a clean and i sent an email (not to wash the car down!!!
That i was into detailing and i like to do wash down, clean, and seal and wax the car myself? All i think there doing is de-dusting inside the car giving it ones over, If it pass on the MOT the services is next, then it needs to go back to get new wind screen as there was a bit of a mix up with that job? There is no MOT fail on the screen just that i wanted a new one |

I'm in complete awe John, that is terrific. I've missed this thread somewhat as I cannot see pics in threads when at work due to our IT system having a firewall so tight a nats fart can't get thru and home PC has been playing up.
That is just mind blowing...looking at what can be done. Wow! All the best with it now you have it back! |

Might need a wheel alignment done. It's worth getting that done once a year or once every two years, keeps the beast tracking straight and tru. I need to do my track rods first though.....
