    thankyou.

    The bezel came with my wood trim swap I bought from a guy in the Netherlands. He said it all came out of a 750il individual.

    Ugh, why black...?

    Friend and I pulled 730d's transmission out. Took it to another bimmer enthusiast who's gonna work on it. We'll see in couple of days what parts are needed to order. I already ordered Heavy Duty A-Drum.

    Installed new turn signal switch/clockspring assembly (old one was not auto-canceling on left turns), removed my stock '01 M-Sport wheel in favor of an e46 wheel wrapped in new leather with M-colors stitching.

    Some very nice cars here.

    Washed and clayed (see photo attached), quite possibly by the looks of the clay after it has never been clayed, next step is wax, what do you guys use? had chemical guys in mind.E38 clay.jpg

    I use meguiars 105 and 205 compounds before wax to get the ultimate shine by taking the swirls out and deepen the reflection. Of course there’s many factors that involve in using rubbing and polishing compounds - how much clear cost you have and how much swirls and scratches you want to remove.
    As far as the wax, I use chemical guys liquid carnuba because it can be easily applied with my DA and easy to take off with the heat in AZ.
    I then use my wolgham (forgot the true spelling) paint sealant for extra protection.
    Lucas slick mist spray wax is used during car washes.
    Hope that helps
