Once this beautiful 2015 BMW M3 in Lemans Blue hit the US shores owner David L brought it right to us to have it protected with Xpel Ultimate and Modesta BC-05. By installing Xpel Ultimate paint protection film the high impact areas will be protected from the elements. Modesta Glass Coatings will preserve the paint's finish and provide a durable long lasting shine on the paint.

Here are the shots of what was covered (less the hood (custom) and headlights)
