Hi guys/gals

Picked our 525d m sport in titanium silver last month but its currently in the garage being painted again due to useless bodyshop employees.

I have some new wheels waiting to go on 172 spider wheels
remap next month
rear tints as we usally have our 5 week old nephew at weekends etc in the car













Washed, Clayed, and a layer of Zaino Z2

This pic you can see the different coloured door from the rest of the car





Thanks

Graham
