No such thing as going too far on the wife’s ride. Great job!

My girlfriend has a 330i and I’ve been slowly doing the same. Looks killer!

Nice upgrades!

Did the Adams Ceramic change the color of the wheels to black?

Thank You Guys, She was happy, I did not give her any clues. I reviewed wheel options with her and told her I was going to wash it and it needed 24 hours to dry. A week later she started asking where her car was. I said I sold it due to the pandemic....... yeah i amuse myself

I used a few different polishes and the sonax perfect finish turned out to be the winner on this paint. 3 coats of ceramic with 24 hours between each coat. The wheels have 3 coats with 4 hours between coats. And then topped everything with bead maker as my sacrificial layer. She does daily drive it so I wasn't going for garage kept show car finish but more along the lines of easy maintenance washes.

Looks much better. Amazing how a few trim pieces and a new set of wheels can totally change the look of a vehicle.
