Detailed:James Bond would Approve! PICS
Ever since I saw the first Atlantic blue Z3 in the James Bond movie Ive always had a soft spot for these cars. The lines of the body seem very classic to me. This car was DEFINITELY a daily driver with some battle scars to prove it (worn out headrest, broken deadpedal, dirty armrest etc.) The process took about 8 hours excluding the engine bay. The rims were HEAVILY caked in brake dust and it definitely took some elbow grease to remove it, although the brake dust did heavily etch, oxidize, and destroy some parts of the finish. Interior was fully shampood and conditioned. Enjoy!

Great job but the question begs to be asked. Did you pimp slap the owner? I can understand that some people just don't care enough to wash their cars but..... How do you go through life with arms so dirty that you leave a ring of filth on your door and what the hell is in your hair that causes your headrest to explode?!?!?!

if I did that I wouldn't get paid! The owner didnt really care for the car at all, he wasnt even expecting such a nice turnout just a nice wax and vacuum lol. The car also has about 108k on the odo. Anyone interested in a detail?? I have yet to do a p-car and Ill definitely give an awesome deal to the first few who do. thanks for the compliments again!
