      I got a little time today and started to buff her, look at the difference already

      the trunk and upper part of the quarter panel (and upper part of the bumper) were buffed, the lower part is how it was, can you see the difference ? :D



      hood, pass side buffed



      it's gonna clean up nicely !

      Should I bring the models and take some pics ?

                      Too bad I sold/gave away all the green alpina stripes:(
                      I have a set of Alpina stripes in an envelope with your name on it coming your way if you want them. :pimp:

                      And all you needed was to buff the paint to make it look like that?!!??

                      Unreal?

                      Is that due to the fact the paint had no clearcoat?

                        I really want to hate you for having Nina but then you do stuff like this;)

                        Yup single stage paint, I dont know all the tech aspects but the stuff goes dull as hell and with proper buffing comes right back.

                          I'll send you the stripes as I don't even want to attempt to put them on.

                          And I didn't post up an update on my thread since I didn't take any before pictures... but I had a PDR guy go at it on Nina this afternoon.

                          Except for the passenger side rear quarter panel where he couldn't do much she looks SA-WEET now! Kinda like what Pro-Activ can do with acne!

                          Sure helps take the itch off for a while to repaint her.

                              Lev or Vlad, can one of you guys snag me the P/N of those hubcaps? My 318i has slightly different ones and I think I prefer those more...

                              BTW, Lev, you've got a PM, sorry for lagging!
