Okay.... MAC BOOK fail.... its really slowed me down, out with the old in with the new... ordered a new DELL XPS 9750 4k. Im looking forward to seeing how it handles my editing duties!
FORUM member Marc brought his silver 3.0 to the studio late last week... With forum discount applied we will be able to get him into a FULL 2 stage and kamikaze ceramic for a very reasonable price. As a thank you to him for coming to the forum i will be doing a soft top deep clean Free of charge ( he can specify a water proof coating if he wishes ) I believe he will be booked in for feb 2019 and i look forward to working with him and his vehicle.

Keep up the great work beedub 
Great. I've been looking to get this done locally. Also need triple flash indicators and a couple of others bits coding.

Sooooo, does this mean it is possible to code out the speed limiter on sixth gear? I have heard it is available but only with a 400quid remap which i never understood , any ideas

mad im really not sure, ill do some digging into the programme to see whats possible. Back to work tomorrow :-(
Out of curiosity - how much would it cost (roughly) to wrap a 2003 Z4 E85 in a nice metallic black? Mine is Sapphire Black which I like, but the paint work has seen better days so curious how wrapping (as closely matching the original colour as poss.) would fair up again a respray

plus one, same as IAmOrion , had a three stage polish but wasn't that impressed with it
IAmOrion said:
Your looking around 1850 with forum discount..... If you wrapped onto an already black car its much easier to do as you dont have to "hide" the original colour as much in terms of the seams etc..... The effect would look like paint in this case... nothing less. Which isnt always the case

i'm really surprised you say that..... a proper 3 stage correction would render even the most poor condition paintwork to a near mirror finish.... The results i get from a 2 stage usually blows the customers mind but a 3 stage is a different thing.... we are talking 25hrs plus of correction work.
Beedub said:
...and how much are the different stage polishes?
I'm always broke, so sadly £1850 is outta my price range (and for numerous reasons, I don't do credit. I had a bad experience when I was 18 and have never used credit since. If I can't afford it outright, I won't do it)

it was far from mirror finish, i think i got stung for £450 as i had to pick it up after work and it was outside and had been raining so could'nt
really get a good idea, it's only now ,a few months down the road and seeing other cars that have had the same polish from a different outfit that it shows,

your looking at around 260 for a single stage package over to 700ish for a 3 stage..... forum members get an additional 10% .... i usually undercut my competitors by quite some margin. The results from a 3 stage correction is literally unbelievable.... If the works done correctly and its ALOT of work... When i do the detailing stuff i'm earning every penny, proper graft!

ouch.... sadly the price point says it all...... 3 stage correction for this money is either someone starting out and trying to make a name or someone who doesn't have a clue possibly both.... the work involved its just not viable at 450 quid.

I think it was the latter of the two,if i ever come up your way(so to speak) i'll swing by and see if you reckon a single or double stage would work rather than a wrap then book it in with you.Beedub said:basil the dog said:it was far from mirror finish, i think i got stung for £450 as i had to pick it up after work and it was outside and had been raining so could'nt
