yea he will have used the swage line as a break-up. Do below and then do above, then you arent spreading the panel work over too big an area and you get better results. He just hasnt shown you the pic of after he's done the c-pillar.
Cracking work...superb results!

For an idea on prices take a look here: http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/detailing-services-service-options.html
Don't quote me on it, but i reckon that job would have been closer to £2500, but if you want the best, you have to pay for the best

£2500???

Not all details are £2500 though, it depends what you want. You could have someone give it a decent going over in one day or you could have every single mark removed over 92 hours, and everything in-between.

Plus I think these guys are in a different league to what most people on this forum are tbh. To have an E92 M3 as a run around for them is like a MK3 Fiesta to us.

That's true. Did anyone else spot the R8 in the background in some of the pics? Plus all the cars that Murray has posted before.

im sorry but irrespective of the car, whether its a 50/60k car, £2500 is massively ridiculous amount for what in essence is a glorified car wash. IMO of course.

Just to stoke the fire a little bit  I believe it's also why PB posted the amount of time spent on that car in their title too

£100 pound an hour is a joke no matter how much the owner has.
And if that can all be done, including interior in 80 hours how did the M3 take 92?

Fair enough Murray, my bad. It wasn't a dig, I thought PD's whole thread was very pretentious anyway tbh.
