My Ride: 535d M-Sport '06 Plate - Carbon Black - Black Leather - Pro Sat Nav - Logic 7 - HUD - Bluetooth - Privacy Glass - 172M 19" Alloys - Heated Seats - PDC - Adaptive Headlights - Extended Voice Control - Paintshield Extended - M5 Boot Finisher - Bright White LED Internal Lighting - Dension Gateway 500 Ipod/USB/Aux Integration
I got hold of the M5 Turbo edition of BMW Car magazine today.
I was happily flicking through when I came to the article on Paintshield Car Protection Film. Lo and Behold there's my car being fitted with the film! (the black 535d on the first page of the article)
I know it's mine because a couple of weeks before a nasty kerb/alloy interface occured and the damage can be seen on my M172 in the picture.
So, fame at last (sort of!)

It cost me ?595 for the extended kit. This covers half of the actual bonnet and the entire front bumper.
You can hardly see it unless you're up close and it really is very tough. It's not got a mark on it so far!
