Progress pic from Day 1 on Monday. It looks sick!
Had to get some touch up paint for a couple preexisting imperfections & waiting for IND paint matched reflectors to arrive tomorrow. Should hopefully receive the finished product by Friday and will upload pics. |

Greatly appreciate it. Still scratch my head at BMW calling this color carbon black when during the day it’s an obvious deep blue. Maybe it was an overcast day when it came time to name the color. Lol

Personally ceramic makes cleaning much easier. PPF might appear dirty but with a microfiber towel and some detail spray all bugs/grime and water stains just wipe right off… it’s one of the coolest things. |

Id think of your driving habits and environment which you will most likely commute. I know from my previous vehicle that rock chips from highway driving, daily bug/insect massacres (car vs bug), and FL rain - make mainting your daily driver clean, damn near impossible. Reasons I invested in full PPF.
