2002 M3 convertible correction by Immaculate Reflections

[gofast908z]

Thought I'd share this one too as I've been swamped with BMWs as of late.

This customer came to me by way of her sister after I spent 3 days on her 2006 Audi A6. The sisters have a long-standing competition with each other over just about anything (all in good fun)... so her sister called me right up and drove 2 hours each way to bring the car to me in order to make her 87,000 mile M3 look new again. I was happy to level the playing field, along with the M3's paint ;)




Time involved: ~20 hours
Goal: ~90% correction. Achieved. :)

Thanks for lookin!

[LuxuryMobile]

Awesome work, and a pretty cool story behind it. Really like that color for an M3. Those wheels are such a pain to work with though. Good work as usual.

[CleanGene]

Nice turnaround!

[FastZR1]

Great work.... I hope the owner takes car of the paint now and it doesn't go back to what it was.

[gofast908z]

Thanks guys!

Thank you! Well about a week after I did it she sold it. She had it listed for less than a day, and it was sold! She replaced it with a black E350 Merc I think.

Why am I not surprised?

[LegacyGT]

Nice work, you have been busy lately!

Those front seats have some unique leg rests :)

[GaDetailDoc]

Great job. I was working on a 2011 328i. Tough clear coat.

[Sunshyne]

must of missed it but chemicals did you use?

[ExoticAutoDetai]

Wheres the write up?

[FastZR1]

With the paint correction you did, I'm sure she got top dollar on the sale.

[SeaJay's]

Great work as always! I love the interior!
