2002 M3 convertible correction by Immaculate Reflections

[gofast908z]

Thought I'd share this one too as I've been swamped with BMWs as of late.

This customer came to me by way of her sister after I spent 3 days on her 2006 Audi A6. The sisters have a long-standing competition with each other over just about anything (all in good fun)... so her sister called me right up and drove 2 hours each way to bring the car to me in order to make her 87,000 mile M3 look new again. I was happy to level the playing field, along with the M3's paint




Time involved: ~20 hours
Goal: ~90% correction. Achieved.

Awesome work, and a pretty cool story behind it. Really like that color for an M3. Those wheels are such a pain to work with though. Good work as usual.

Nice turnaround!

Great work.... I hope the owner takes car of the paint now and it doesn't go back to what it was.

Thanks guys!

Thank you! Well about a week after I did it she sold it. She had it listed for less than a day, and it was sold! She replaced it with a black E350 Merc I think.

With the paint correction you did, I'm sure she got top dollar on the sale.

M3 looks great! I'm going be working on a friend M3 in a couple weeks before he brings it to a meet. Was the paint hard to work with?
