First wash.

Hi, spent some time giving my e89 some tlc today-it was pretty dirty from pick up & rained on it the next day as well.
Basic wash & clay mitt session along with some chemical cleaning on the mucky tailpipes :P





I've always thought the cars lines look better without being festooned with unnecessary letters/numbers from the wing badges, so I removed them with some dental floss & sticky stuff remover
Before

After

Much better imho :thumbsup:
 
Looks great! What did you use on the tailpipes? Mine are horrendous and haven't got around to cleaning them yet ...

I used some top secret cleaner as used by London Underground on their signal boards :oops:
Not available to the public I'm afraid, I think it's similar to wheel cleaning spray :thumbsup:

It's all very well Mrs Smartbear taking photo's while your grafting away, where's the essential cup of tea and chocolate hobnob required during such undertakings??? :wink:

Ah fair enough, will have to have a look around see what I can get, am rather envious of the shiny pipes now! :thumbsup:
 
:? I actually prefer the badges, fab looking car BTW and a 3.0i as well. :D

I prefer it without the badges.

You still on runflats?

Yes, it feels slightly softer than the si which makes the runflats bearable-doesn't seem to suffer from the dreaded tramlining either :o
