That's very impressive - what a finish you got on the car. Puts my "detailing" skills to shame!!!

Well done!!

He found it hard trying to keep it clean yesterday mind :fuelfire: .You should have seen some of the country lanes(with muddy puddles)that i took him down to get to one of our local beeches :lol: at one point i thought he was gonna cry :rofl: he must have gone through this one big puddle at about 1 mph :roll: and then when i turned around to go back because i had took a wrong turning ......well you should have seen the look on his face :rofl: i thought he was going to ask his missus to get out and sponge it up to save dirtying the wheels :poke:

thanks for the comments people
pewters i think they like to wined you up m8 :fuelfire: in here just cause you keep your car clean :lol:
this is the car before the lemans and side steps fitted i also deleted the 3.0d wing badges
when i was at it. makes it look smoother at the sides i feel and i added black carbon style bmw badges front & rear
pewters guide ;) was really helpful for the rear lips on the rear bumper as this involved cutting but other than that it was straight forward
i have the front heated seats to install next but i need to get them retrimmed there in sand beige at the mo they need to go black (it never ends this modding game) :D
