    Hey everyone,

    Over the weekend I had the privelege of detailing a beautiful 328xi sedan.

    The client brought the car to me in good condition. The car just had some holograms, light scratches and a little heavier scratches on the trunk. You will spot it in the pictures.

    In any case I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them and detailing the car. I also want to thank the client for letting me take after shots.

    Oh I apologize for not taking more full shots of the car for befores. I was too excited about working on this car :party0030:


    Cheers,
    Nick

    Wow, that looks amazing. I'm very impressed. I have never seen a better looking 3-series, and I see about 100 a day. You really brought out that color.

    I really appreciate that comment. Nothing like positive reinforcement from fellow detailers :)

    They do make great wheels although merc amg wheels are perty as well.
