Project : Frozen Black X6M

***Disclaimer - I know that everyone will have opinions on this but love it or hate it this post is just to share information and the process***

I figured I should share some photos on a project we are taking on for a client. The vehicle was picked up from the dealer and driven almost immediately to our shop. The odometer read 70km when i took the original photos. We joke about the vehicle because the owner drives a DBS for summer and this is his "winter bimmer". He was quite dissapointed by the lack of wow factor that his new M had versus the previous 5.0i. So needless to say he has employed us to change the color to U81 (frozen black). Should be interesting...

Sorry for my ignorance but how did the 5.0 had more of a wow factor?

The M is a beautiful machine but he thought they are a bit too much the same so he is going for something a bit more dramatic. The new color will not be for everyone but it will be fairly unique...

Pics at the end of day one, it is a very big job to disassemble...
