Bit of M4 Comp cleaning Content

Hi Guys

Vaguely felt like spring here in Kent at the weekend. So I set about rectifying my dirty M4.

Here is the fruits of a few hours labour :

Hope you like

Regards

Chris

You sure it's not covered in soup?

I find it so therapeutic to wash the car but it really doesn't stay clean for long in this weather.

That looks awesome, are they genuine CS wheels and 19/20 setup or other?

Hi mate. Yes genuine M Performance 763M's. 20 rear / 19 fronts.
Same as CS wheels.

Yes car washing for me is escapism.

Thanks.

Aha you noticed my rest spats. I ordered them from Latvia on eBay.

I'll try and find a link to them. I found there's too many aggressive rear arch things out there.

Here's the arch things.

Btw I have them combined with the auto ID mudguards all in carbon.

I can second that. If I can get an un interrupted by the kids or the ball and chain it's a pure escape for me.


I only ever get enough time to wash it and then dry.

Despite only having it for 26k miles the previous owner must have Lived in an automatic wash so it's badly swirled.

I must try to correct the paint but will prob have to do it in stages.

I need to get a set of these. I was quite shocked to see the peppered stone chips on the passenger side leading edge of the front sill.


I'm running 10mm front and 12 mm rear spacers

Do you find them effective the splatter?
