Default Had the BM detailed....

Took my car to James at www.ti22.co.uk to have it detailed, after James had seen the car he told me it was in a pretty bad shape with really bad swirls and really need about 3 days of work to get it 100%.
Being a daily driver and not a show car i decided to just have a 1 day detail for now and here are some pics of how it went.....

Before showing some of the Swirls in sunlight:






Now some 50/50 shot's, shows how grey the car looked before:





Some close up's of the car finished with a sun gun:





Pics of the car finished:





Really happy with the results, there are still some marks on the car but the improvement is massive, u can actually tell the car is Metallic Black now
Big thank you to James, did an awesome job

Very impressive job there Mate - the grey "covering" was totally spoiling the look of it, not that you could notice it on the before shots, but the side by side shots show an amazing difference
