Detail of My 1999 528i
First off, I know we have a sponsor on here(showcare steve), but I wanted to show off some of my buddys work. He recently detailed my 1999 528i and I was pretty shocked at how clean and refreshed the car looked after he was done with it. He let me know that it took him a total of 14 hours to get the car to the state that it is in now. I am extremely happy. If you are interested give me a pm and I can provide you with my friend info.
Here is the background of the car: I bought this after I sold my 335i around January, It was pretty dirty when I picked it up and I never really had a chance to give it a good cleaning. When I picked up my M3, the 528i sat around during the summer. I use the car when the weather is shitty and to transport my dog from place to place. Anyways, Here are some pictures of how the car looked when my friend picked it up: Front Passanger Side wheel (As you can tell it had brake dust caked on it) ![]() Gauge Cluster bezel (You can see my dog) ![]() Here is the dash ![]() Exterior Before (pretty dirty, it went without a car wash in about 3 weeks prior to handing it off to my friend) ![]() |

After pictures
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Exterior Before: ![]() Exterior After: (I know I have to get that headlight sealed better and close ups of the exterior) ![]() I am extremely impressed with his detail work, I will hopefully have some before and after of the Exterior, but overal for a car with over 150k miles on it, looks brand new with a ful detail. He will be doing a full detail of my M3 before it gets tucked away for the crazy Chicago weather. |
