DetailersDomain.com fixes a Santorini Blue BMW M3

[DetailersDomain]

We got a call from Matt Stellas (aka mfatuation) shortly after Bimmerfest requesting a paint correction for this very special Santorini Blue M3.  Apparently during transport back home to NJ, the car wash wiped down incorrectly.  Take a look at the exterior paint correction.  


We also opted for Auto Finesse Illusion due to its show car status.


Enjoy!
