E91 after 9 hours of detailing!!

Hi guys, finally got some good weather so made the most of it. Had the car machine polished using 3m products followed by an autoglym wax. Came out like a crystal. Thought id share a few pics, excuse my photography skills and iphone camera.

Shouldve waited until next week when the twin exhaust wouldve been on but couldnt help myself.

Hope you like it!

Looks pretty good but it looks as if there is swirls when the sunlight hits the rear quarter.

Cheers guys.

I know there are no swirls anymore, probably just the pics. It was so hot the dirty water was driving up before I could get the leather on it.

Bin the chamois and buy a drying towel. Next thing you will say is that you used a sponge!

Lol I thought the autoglym chamois wasn't too bad but guess I was wrong I use one of those micro fibre mits, so no sponge

Thanks mate, the wheels are 19" Dotz mugello, M3 fitment. They look a lot better in the flesh.

Stunning, can't beat a black car when it's clean. If only it wasn't so hard keeping them that way!

My car will never be that clean! Not if left to me anyway.
How much does it cost to get someone to make it that shiny?

Ye the car is shinier then I ever imagined. My brother in law was a body shop manager at sytner so cost me nothing at all lol. But he usually would charge about £250 to mop it up like new.
