Detail of My 1999 528i

First off I know its not a 335i or my M3, but I wanted to show off a detail recently done by a good friend of mine.

Here is the background of the car:
I bought this after I sold my 335i around January, It was pretty dirty when I picked it up and I never really had a chance to give it a good cleaning. When I picked up my M3, the 528i sat around during the summer. I use the car when the weather is shitty and to transport my dog from place to place.

Anyways, Here are some pictures of how the car looked when my friend picked it up:

Front Passanger Side wheel (As you can tell it had brake dust caked on it)

Gauge Cluster bezel (You can see my dog)

Here is the dash

Exterior Before (pretty dirty, it went without a car wash in about 3 weeks prior to handing it off to my friend)

I am extremely impressed with his detail work, I will hopefully have some before and after of the Exterior, but overal for a car with over 150k miles on it, looks brand new with a ful detail. He will be doing a full detail of my M3 before it gets tucked away for the crazy Chicago weather.

If you are in the Chicagoland area pm me and I can provide you with his information
