I really shows on this forum how much we all love our e60's. We call it a great day when we spend 4-5 hours detailing our prize possesions. Today, I spent most of the day, washing, giving the car a clay rub-down, followed by a good waxing and window cleaning. She's now as smooth as a baby's butt and reflects like a mirror! As I had her tinted last weekend, it was time to give her a full work over. Hmmm... if this was posted in "one of those other forums", probably sound like a come on!

Here's a pix and she shines like a mirror! Love it. The camera is pretty bad, so does not do it justice, but figured I'd share...
