Quick video of the M3 after its 16hr professional detail yesterday, over moon with results:

Looks very nice. Seems like a brilliant job.

What was the cost if you don't mind me asking?

It's like watching an old geography teacher leave after school on a Friday afternoon.

LOL!

Cost varies but a typical paint correction and enhancement and then protection is £250, though he wanted £150, I gave him £200 as it only seemed fair for the amount of work out in.

Bargain, may I ask where and how long was the job?

geekman · 11 Feb 2018 at 16:06

£200 for 16 hours? That seems incredible value.

Jeez that was cheap!

Rybo89 · 11 Feb 2018 at 16:57

That is silly cheap. Whats his company name?

@Gibbo

Driveby Detailing owned by Oliver Sinclair and he is based in Stoke, add on Facebook and message him.

He is also coming the meet on 3rd March and I think Kindai is gonna get his GTR done by him.

Definitely cheap rather than typical!

That M3 looks stunning, has to be said.

Amos91 · 11 Feb 2018 at 17:24

First clean in a little while today, followed by hail and sun

Akagi · 11 Feb 2018 at 17:57

That black gold is a great colour...

The paint correction has made an awesome difference to the paint on the M3 too!

Gibbo · 12 Feb 2018 at 10:17

Then yesterday, the Jaag got the same treatment.

A full correction and 3 stage enhancement (paint cleanse, sealant & swissvax).

A quick wash for this at the weekend, really needing some proper time spent on it before the summer.

Also tried to reduce the massive bonnet gap a bit, mostly unsuccessfully

geekman · 12 Feb 2018 at 13:03

Isn’t it a case of “they all do that, sir”?

rodenal · 12 Feb 2018 at 13:18

They do, but you can adjust it at the sides of the bonnet to make it a bit better

mjt · 12 Feb 2018 at 13:36

That looks worse than stock. It appears to rise in the middle

-edit. Just looked at some pics. Why is the panel gap so large?? :confused:

rodenal · 12 Feb 2018 at 13:38

I know, was looking at the photo earlier and realised how odd it appears. Will need to either adjust the catch down or raise the sides again (unless it's just the photo but don't think so).

The gap "seems" to be intentional but I honestly have no idea why they done it, serves no meaningful purpose

Handy bike rack maybe?
