Dude, 6 hours is like, minimum...
I used to spend 8+ hours on my ti easily...Last month I did my cousin's 350Z and it took me over 9 hours.

Bozola, the car looks good! Thanks for posting up more pics!

Damn, that looks like a BMW press photo.
6 hours sounds about right.
I washed, clayed and polished my car in just under 8.
But that was after years of neglect.

my first thought was that if BMW used those images, the 1-series sales would double...

Nice Job!

Too new of a car, how poorly could it have looked like before? Not like it looked like a ratty 23 odd year old E30 or E34 correct.

Their products are nice but imo are overpriced in some circumstances.

Nice 1 series you have there, in comparison to an E46 how do you like it? They weigh and are sized very much alike.
