• M stickers were sourced from ebay ($10)

3 coats of paint followed by 5 coats of clear. Figured I'd clean my wheel hubs while I was at it - nothing a steel brush wheel and grinder couldn't fix.
Nice work. Want to do so while calipers remain on the car (once its warm outside).
Need to figure out how to keep the lighter colored BMW lettering. Wondering if clear-coat over eBay stickers would last?
