This Gentleman contacted me through a Local BMW Forum. He was interested in having his car detailed as he had just bought the car a few weeks ago. He had so service done on the car and it needed to be cleaned up. I told him to bring it over for a true quote estimate. He lived 1 city over and said he could bring it that afternoon.



Once the car came over i was glad to see a Z3 Roadster....and it was alpineweiss *My favorite BMW Color*. The car had some Problems. It had MAJOR paint contamination. It had lived its entire life outside and had never been detailed. The owner had just had a New M-Tech Front bumper installed and the paint on the rest of the car didnt match up with the fresh painted bumper. The client said he wanted me to go All out, so I went all out. The paint had so much Junk on it that this is the first time i had to bust out the CG Aggressive Clay Bar.



The Headlights made the car look REALLY old. They were yellowed and hazed over. I decided to try and tackle these with my own little method.
