yeah since I paid cash he cut me a deal on the job. I will have to say this is by far the most I have ever taken a car apart that is this new. I do know it is for sure being done right with what I have seen them doing. The entire car has been getting wet sanded this week to prep the door jams for paint this Friday. I will post pictures after the jams have been painted and thank IXI187IXI for the headlight it should be here tomorrow

Thanks for posting those pics. Looks they're prepping for a very thorough job. Do you know if any previously painted areas nooks or crannies will be unreachable? I'm wondering if someone looked closely afterward whether or not they could tell it was repainted. Not that it matters .... just curious how thorough they can be without completely disassembling every little part.

There is one obvious way to tell it's been repainted though - Sepang Bronze is a BMW colour!

Since they're using PPG, will they use PPGs Ceramic clear coat?

trying to get some new wheels but eveyone want to much for new and used sets. I wanted to get some vossen but don't have the fund for 2k right now so I guess I willhave to ride on my TSW until next month unless I can sell mine or get some wheels for a good price. I'm going to try and get a set wheel workd for a local guys but it still up in the air. any offers I will consider looking into, plus if I can get a good deal on a set of vossen I will also.
