the car is a daily driver , plus the way it drives it makes u drive it even more.

Those are RAC wheels and an Akrapavic exhaust on the M3. I'll bet it's someone on these forums.

Cheers.

still.... they're pretty beaten up IMO. I drive my car EVERYDAY and usually have more than 3 people in it, and my seats don't look 1/8th as bad as those.

Good Job BTW! That X5 must be a BITCH to polish.

i wash with onr so i got use with the panels, the difficult part at polish is tape the bars

) , i use my square vacuum to rich the roof, is not that bad. is a little intimidating because the size but once u start ... is like a mini

)
if i knew about detailing years ago i was getting a silver or gray car....
