Evening all,
I've had this booked in for a while now and I've finally had a chance to get my hands on it.
It was booked in for a full enhancement detail and the lux tint package.
The car is question is a 330d BMW Coupé in Le Mans blue. It was an ex rep car so it has been treated horrifically! It was certainly the worst paint I'd seen in a very long time!
I'll let the pics do the talking...
