Maggiolone - nice white E30 but that VW Jetta looks pristine. My first new car was a 1981 VW Jetta diesel with a whopping 50 hp and blue tweed fabric interior. The dealer put a set of pricey BBS basketweave wheels on the car that I had to negotiate to get removed since those high mpg cars were is such high demand that the dealers were jacking up the prices with add-on options. It did look pretty BMW 320i-like but it was still a VW.

That's what I have- beautiful blue tweed.
I've wanted BBS for the Jetta for a long time. Or Ronal Turbos. These cars are so fun and easy to modify, and look good with most period-correct 4x100 wheels.

Since I now gently drive iX year round, I'd like to get my car's original red paint restored/polished/wax sealed before the weather turns really bad.
Is there anyone here who does this kind of work or can can recommend a person or shop that would be careful not to overdo the buffing process since the paint is 26 years old.1989 325iX Zinnoberrot/Black 65k miles

I just used it. Does everything someone else can. Don't buy tons of expensive stuff.

I could swear I've seen a few part outs lately. A lot of those guys don't make it to this forum.
