Looks great, but it looks like the before pictures were lightened or something. Even the background has 10 times the life in the after pictures. Different camera?

I like to keep the house about 62 degrees while I sleep and when I took the camera outside, the lens kept fogging up. It was overcast that morning too and in the afternoon the sun peeked out so they were much better. I was frustrated that the before pics were hazy so I neglected to shoot the horrible sratches on the right lower panel that ran the full length of the rear door and when I was able to get 98% of them out I was really bummed that I had no pics. The befores were at my house with a paved drive and the afters were at the owner's on concrete so the black really shows well. It was rainy all morning, I'm just glad he didn't cancel. Just one of those days, lol.

Did you say 62 degrees? I'd be freezing my butt off! Mine is kept at 74-76!
Fogging issue.......that's what I figured. Looks like a different car

Oh, 62 and a fan for noise, I'm an odd duck I know. I like to sleep under a blanket...
The owner said that too and she wasn't aware of the pics, hehe. She was very pleased! The 650i convertible I posted the day prior to this one is her husbands.
