Rare 335D Get's Facelifted and Coated

So a return customer who searched long and hard found a real gem. A super rare 2011 335D M-Sport Package BMW with only 42k miles

on it is now his.

This car was very well cared for and at some point in it's life was said to have been corrected and coated. No coating or any protection remained apparent as I cleaned it but it was still pretty clean. Light swirls filled the paint but honestly, nothing that a good polishing wasn't able to correct.

It was slightly dull and oxidized but again, targeting full protection here was key, so Doug went with my Premium Enhancement Polish and a 3-Layer Ceramic Coating System that will safeguard it as it's going to be living outside a garage here in Ohio.

This awesome car is one of many that I love but will share that if I had the opportunity to buy this for the price he did, this thread would have me owning it in less than a few seconds. Inside is like brand new just like the outside. In fact it's as clean inside and out as my 2018 Q and while I'm not extra OCD, I do keep it pretty nice. This is a unicorn of a car for sure.

Featured in Black Sapphire Metallic the paint sparkles in the sun but has a super deep look to it in the shade. It's a see to believe in person car for sure. I don't drive customer cars but this one is carrying a stealthy piggy back tune that is clear adds to the power of the car. It fires right up like new and is tight handling and feeling like one would expect an MSport to be. It's most definitely not a one handed turn around in a parking lot car it's that tight.

Anyway, onto the pics of yet another beauty in the hands of a Columbus Car Guy.

Polished with a Flex 3401 with Orange Hybrid Force Pads and a newer XCE with Orange Flat Pads by Lake Country. CarPro Essence was the polish of choice as the LSP is CarPro Cquartz UK 3.0 (2 Layers) topped with a final layer of super slick CarPro Gliss v2.0

Wheels were protected with Sonax Wheel and Rim Shield Spray as these are coming back to me once full restored and fixed in a few areas for a coating job. Glass was polished with Griot's Garage Fine Glass Polish and topped with Rust Oleum's NeverWet for Glass. Tires dressed with Meg's Hyperdressing and what little trim there is with GYEON's Q2 Trim.
