Post by sniry » Fri Jan 09, 2009 8:26 pm

hi all
here is my first deatailling attempt .. i know its not "fancy" like the GT-R thread but this is my first one so.. :)

well its a 08 z4 roadster, alpine white. the paint was in a good condition to began with.

ok now to the fun part..pics!
i stated cleaning the leatehr with Z9 followed with the Z10, it did a good job and i like the smell of it.
altough the Z9 didnt do a perfect job, but satisfying.

ok, top on, time to clean the soft top, i used the BMW soft to cleaner, great results!

now for the wheels..
i used the meguiars hot rims and the special brush.

thanks !

about the color combo, i like it because i like the soft integration between the white and the beige, the opposition between white and black is just to strong on a flowing design car such as the Z :)

To start, Excellent Post! :thumbsup: Good use of the full Zaino Product line!

Great color combo on your Z4. I miss my Z3 in those colors!

For your colors, here is something different in a mat. Actually was popular in 60's and 70's Euro Sports Cars - coming back!
High quality, a bit higher price -

You didn't show a final seal on the top. After a good drying in the sun, I use RaggTop - beads up nice without making the fabric hard.

And I really like your garage with tile floor! :happyclap:

Great shine! Great effort!

Best!

Coco mats are custom made to your car -http://www.cocomats.com/
Click on skip, the colors, then click on each color for large sample. Then go to order. Not sure about shipping to Israel. Check their site or contact them.

I am going to order a set soon - can't decide on color! My interior interior and carpet is beige - what mat color do you think?

On sealing your beige top - I have had 3 Zs with beige top. Ragg Top seal does gives great protection, beads nice in rain and fabric does not get hard. Despite your great care, there are still Birds and Tree sap!

You have a beautiful color combo!
