THAT IS FREAKEN AWESOME!!!!

I really want to do this but can't justify that kind of money.

That is a really good price for the time they spent.

It looks like the paint is still wet!!!!

Looks better than new.

Love it - I want to get mine done this spring.

Just got to sort out all the stone chips on my front bumper. Did the paint correction improve the front end of your car in terms of wear and weathering?

Thanks mate!!
Took me a while to pull the trigger. I thought I'd do it as I've paid the finance off on the car and decided to keep her.
I was amazed when I saw it! Felt like I could dip my hand in and it'd come out estoril blue haha

Coating will prevent it from fading and bird droppings, with a 10 year life span if maintained properly.

Well worth the money

Make sure you correct the paint before you do it though! Makes the results 10x better.

I have stone chips and have scraped the left side bumper as you can tell from being lowered and daily driving. Doesn't get rid of stone chips unfortunately as the paint chips off.

Cool thanks brother - but touching up the areas that are chipped would definitely improve/ be recommended yeah?

Yeah touch it up before you do it and allow a week for paint to cure.
Get the swirl marks out, restore the depth in the paint then seal it off with the ceramic

I'm considering getting a ceramic coat come spring, I think this post has sold me! Never realized they were that much money though, about 920USD still worth it! Looks good OP

Took me a while too! It's a lot of work to correct the paint and it lasts for years so it's well worth it IMO ☺️

That's cool! Is there any more required touch ups or anything for the time it lasts or do you just kinda wash and go

Just ensure you use good washing methods (2 bucket method/foam cannon) to properly decontaminate the car before washing should net you some good results over the years. I wash my car once a week ☺️

The paint color is so deep and vivid. Fantastic.

BMW 437M wheels are perfectly matched.

Thank you mate.

I couldn't agree more. I didn't want to ruin the handsome look of the 4 series by putting aftermarket wheels on it, not my type of style.

Washing the body and wheels after ceramic coating is a dream and extremely satisfying now! Everything just beads off.

One of the best measures that you like your car is a frequent thought to take a longer route home. Enjoy!
