Thanks for looking

[onlycodered]

Those before pics almost made me want to cry. Very nice job cleaning it up! I'm sure the owner is very happy!

[jamores23]

yeah man, its her fathers car which passed away 2 years ago. I was happy to do it for her.

[Jenn1270]

Man that looks great. Total turn around

[jjkacz]

Nice work! That sprinkler did a number on it. I like the M3 in the driveway too.

[2kredbb6]

Great work..
what was her reaction?

[jamores23]

all she could say was wow. jjkacz, yeah i made a thread with the m3 receiving a correction after it got murdered at the car wash :)

[C. Charles Hahn]

Nicely done!

[LuxuryMobile]

Nice turn around. Those spots from sprinkled were bad

[oldmodman]

Huge improvement. Those water spots really had me cringing. I could actually feel them.

I sure hope it gets parked somewhere else.
