Thanks, coming from a wheel expert like, that is quite the compliment.

It has been a busy weekend and we have finally wrapped up our " Chiquita" !.

My paint shop finished the M side grills. His work was flawless as ever. Then I polished the chrome bits and put on the new side M logos to replace the faded ones.





then put them on,



Then we replaced the rear M emblem. There was nothing wrong with the old one but it wasn't period correct. S50 engine must have the flat surface emblem. Mine was curved.. all fixed now,





before I sent the car to full detail, we had a quick go at some last minute engine cleaning.

Windshield wiper water tank,



even the cap was cleaned over and over,



We put back all baggage trims back on,



Lastly I took the car to a dent removal place to pull back some of the dents that were bothering me

Getting the equipments ready.



Locating the dents,







Pulling gently,



and a bit of kickin' around,



after all these, our work was generally completed on the car so I took it to my local Meguiar's Application Center.
Tomorrow, I will pick her up after a 40hr detail. stay tuned for the final results. It is the big day
