    Here's the cover on my M3. It does have some swirling from the polishing. I'm guessing another pass with lighter pressure would take care of it but it's nothing you will see in these pics. I'd say it's about 85% perfect and I can live with that. You'd have to really be looking for the blemishes in person under the right light to see it.

          It's a decal from Pukar designs. I forget the owner's name but he sold his company to another guy named Koz.
