BMW 328i M Sport - receives a new car prep with Opti Coat installation.

This beautiful brand new estoril blue BMW 328i M Sport receives a new car prep with Opti Coat installation.

The car was received relatively clean, however we found hair line scratches in clusters, some light swirls and marring from washes, and the b pillars were the normal lightly scratched and scuffed up piano black we have come accustomed to on cars with these type of trim pieces.

The final results were great and I believe the customer was quite happy with the work performed.

Epic work, as always. Love these threads, and they remind me how much I need to detail my car.

Nice work as always Phil. Will any other products work on our shadowlline trim? I have Klasse all-in-one, Meguiar's M205/105, Griot's on-step sealant, Black Fire Gloss Enhancing Polish. Thanks.

Beautiful results. Agree with others that I love to see these posts.

Interesting roundels on the car. Is that shield in the windshield part of the M-Sport package? <g>
