My Ride: Bmw 530d 2004
It was a car washing day today, so we went with Eric to do our duty!
It was a nice day in an autumn sun, but the temperature stayed around 4?C / 39?F. I think it will snow this night.
Eric wanted to do his standard inspection after the wash, and I had an opportunity to catch him in action
!
And believe me, he is very anal with his survey
.
Door sills - Check!
Trunk - Check!
Roof - Check!
"Anzafin" badge - Still holding well!
How about paint on the exhaust tips - Yep yep! Still good!
Oooh! Flaky!
Hey! Time Attacks are holding it also!
Hmmm.... How about the fuel hatch? - Pass.
"Acceptable!" he says.
For a while it looked like we weren't leaving at all.

ps. Mods! Please don't move this thread to detailing section as it is not about detailing - obviously

I know this is a gentler website but I just can't help myself. Good Lord. Football season just began and Flat Eric has put on way too much weight. Let's see some proof that he has begun to work out. Please! That belly is disgraceful. SORRY. I just couldn't help myself. I'll probably hear form Rudy, Das , Lomag, Himag, and others now...
