Partial Z4M Detail

[Ali]

Stage 1 of the detail done. Still needed alot more, bloody Crout paint!
Big thanks to Bear for coming and helping, was only a 4hr detail, mainly due to the conditions outside and it being too cold for the polish to break down.

I'll final finish it a month or so, but the majority of the correction is done!

Didn't take many pics and unfortuneately the the snow fell thick and fast before i could get final pics!

If anyones interested in the Process see below:

Snowfoamed with Citrus wash and gloss
Clayed with Polyclay and "The bears own lube"
Polished with Menz 3.04 on 3' 6' Sonus pads

No seal or Glaze at this time.

ONXY wax, finishing up old stuff just now.
wheels - Poorboys, Tyres - Blackfire

Trim - 303.

- Cheers Ali

[Seedy172]

[Ali]

Love that colour. Going to be a f**ker to keep clean tho..

Those wheels dont look right. BBS?

No. Just std. I'd like CSL wheels but there 2k and i spend more than my budget on the car...So that would be happening anytime soon.

 

[fossie]

That will look awesome when finished matey

 

[JD]

nice scottish, very very nice, one of my fav cars around that sort of thing as well!

jamie

 

[Christopher]

Spot on fella!

Can't believe the state of the paint beforehand!!

 

[Skinny]

I think you need a green farmer coat, to drive ti that muddy. Seems to work for some reason, would look f**king flash.


And looks lush, needs new shoes when funds allow though.

 

[Dafthead]

Looks sweet as f*ck mate!!

 

[Ali]

Yep! Car wash'd! One wee mark on front bumper needs wet sanded! Also the exhaust needs some attention. Pipes are quite tarnished.

CSL wheels and Springs for now...Can't do coils until warrenty goes, but tbh, i'm not even sure i'd bother. It's low enough!!! And handles like it's on rails!

 

[.GAZ.]

FLOL..

Chips, bolognese, cheese and a smoked sausage!! MIZIN!!

Cars no bad!

 

[Ali]

haha! Missed yersel there son!

 

[Englebert]

Looking good... i know my exhaust was pretty tarnished, just guess the metal isn't great. When i had my crash i replaced it with a S/H which had only done a few thousand miles and it still needed it a lot of work.

What colour is that then, blue or black? I love the rear of them.

 

[.GAZ.]

haha! Missed yersel there son!

S/H?

Yeh Backs nicer than the front. But i love the detail around the lights.

It's called carbon black, although it's blue..

2nd hand mofo!

 

[Ali]

Ahhhh! ok. I love the std note of the exhaust!!

 

[Paul.]

Talkin aboot the red 32 in the backround?

 

[riz]

Very nice son, i am sure you will sell the Vee after having this.

 

[Englebert]

Never knew CB was available on the Z4, its the same 'black' that most E46 M3s are in.

 

[JR]

love it, love you, love your taste

 

[cat171]

It looked quite bad before (why would somone put it through a car wash ??) Come up nicely so far though

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Nice job!
Black paint really shows up scratches a lot!

 

[Ali]

Cheers now Love her. Not so much in the snow...

haha! Yep, Vee comes on the road first 1wk in May for 6 months. Just been respray'd again so it's spotless! Just needs a full detail. If somebody offers me good money at FCS then i'd be tempted to take it. Best place to sell!!

 

[ben_p]

Wow, awesome car, Would love one of them!

Nice detail too, I need to detail the s**t heap soon!

 

[Ali]

BMW paint....Not cool! (or at -2degree's VERY COOL)

 

[rory182]

fooker I must have missed out on the local delicacy by about an hour. Car was looking very tidy with the effort - couple of annoying wee stone chips in the front corners eh?

 

[jon_r]
