SpeedFreak Detailed: Silver Grey E46 M3 One Step correction/Interior/Engine

SpeedFreakDetail · Mar 13, 2014

I've been getting a lot of business on the Bimmer Alliance group on facebook lately. This client had been asking for a high end detailer in the group and I came recommended by a few past customers and friends. This E46 M3 has covered 135k miles over the past 11 years, and been through a full respray at one point. The finish was dull and lifeless, and could have used a multi stage correction. However, after assessing the client's goals a one step was more in line with what he wanted. We also decided to spruce up the engine bay and interior while at it.
