My buddy is in graduate school in Pittsburgh and needed his car cleaned up after it experienced a Pittsburgh winter. Thankfully, BMWs have a relatively soft clearcoat and it wasn't too bad to work on.

Optimum Polish via an LC orange pad

Meguiar's #21 via an LC red pad

Tires dressed with Number One Dressing

Nice work! Nice shots as well - if you don't mind, what type of camera were they taken with?

Thanks for all the compliments.

The first couple of pictures were taken with my Nikon Coolpix The train shot and the HDR were taken with a Canon Rebel XT.

Love it! anyone know if that facelifted bumper cover will work on a 1st gen E46 coupe? These pics are really impressing me.

Thanks, not sure about the bumper cover though. Maybe someone else can chime in.

Beautiful. The hood reflection shot gave me a stiffy. You can read the labels on the wall!
