That paint job is shocking.
Having all 4 wings replaced due to corrosion is concerning. The brake calipers look very rusty.
I'd be concerned the wax oil underneath is to hide the rust rather than prevent it.

Yes.. some serious orange peel, and considering it apparently had a full respray, the orange peel is not BMW factory fit orange peel, shocking paint job.
The close ups of the front bumper, door mirrors and bumper/front wing join shows it so obviously.

It's not just the orange peel, there are clearly defects in the paint.
The rear bumper looks like sanding marks under the paint. The reflection on every panel is really poor.
The seller claims the car was detailed and ceramic coated in 2025.
The standard of cars PH puts through their auctions is really low.

Four wings replaced and poor paint job - expect that corrosion to be deeper now and will need a respray fairly soon - someone got a bargain there!!!!!!!!! (money-pit)
I was watching this auction as easy to get sucked in by pictures and initial description - alarm bells went off as soon as I read panels replaced
original paint and original body parts are always the best
