Alpine White M Sport - detailing complete

I think this does it - everything I wanted to do is now done. Time to just drive & enjoy it

I purchased this X5 last August and noticed right away the paint needed work, but with a Seattle fall/winter approaching, I wasn't going to spend the effort/time/money until spring to make it look good. Now that spring is here, I had the work done this past weekend. I've always done my own detailing, but this time I paid a shop to do - didn't want to spend my entire weekend doing the work and wear myself out. Plus I had a few other things done to it.

Work done -
-All original film/clear bra removed (was heavily faded/yellowed)
-Front windows tinted to match the stock/factory tint on the rear windows
-Full exterior detail - hand wash, full clay bar, machine polish, wax/sealant, + wheel cleaning/sealant & interior 'spiff'

Yes it's mostly stock, I'm not a big mod guy. The only things I did were -
-X5M steering wheel
-iND painted front reflectors (which finally match now that the old film is removed)
-OEM silver coated/amber blinking halogen front indicator bulbs
-Execuhitch
-Tinted front windows
-Custom coding

iPhone pics...sorry not the best quality -
