The customer originally wanted a 'wheels off' detail, but with my trolley jack on the blink and no jack in the BMW, my only option was the OEM VW Scissor jack.... which I was not prepared to chance. So I had to try and clean them up as best I could, on the car.

They were in terrible condition with a full years worth of BMW Brake dust ingrained into them, especially in the barrels.

And I meant to say I used Meguiars A12 cleaner wax, not A26 (if there is even such a thing)... man I need to go get some sleep :laughing::laughing:

Incredible transformation Lawrence! That bird bomb surely ate up the clear.

The afters look stunning! Well done!

Yes sir, F30. The E92 was the last 2 door coupe designation. The new 4 series coupe is coded F32
