Awesome work is an understatement. This is incredible!

And the Breyton wheels look great on your car!

This post inspired me to give the car a wash/detail today and after 6 hours or so, its pretty... but I'm tired and sore.

OP, you must be some sort of energy-surplus havin dynamo!

Amazing! The attention to detail is insane. I am envious of your patience and dedication because I don't know if I could handle 28 hours of detailing.

Either way great work!

What did you use to paint the calipers? I like how they still have the grain of the metal but the clean color of no rust. Mine are discolored regardless of the numerous hours of scrubbing with wire and metal brushes and abrasives and cleaners. It looks horrible through the "open-windowed" 326M wheels.

Fantastic detail job. The time and labor are 100% evident in the final results. Great job.
