Detailer's Domain: e90 M3 Full Correction/Full Interior
 

A 2009 BMW M3, okay no bashing the customer has absolutely no time in to keep up with this car. It sits outside and its a daily driven car. He's in the field and he lives in it.

Beautiful work! :thumbsup:

Again....amazing work. Glad you got the owner to agree to have you give it the once over a week to maintain.

I *love* that someone uses this as their DD/"in the field" vehicle. If I had to do that for my job, I'd try to make sure that this is the way I did it!

Incredible!

What an awesome DD/field car!!!

thanks!

wow....looks so "wet"!!! love the detail!
