Hi guys,

I have recently picked up my brand new m3 saloon in mineral grey and absolutely love it, however, having covered 2000 miles I seem to be picking up a load of chips on my rear arches which is upsetting!
I don't follow close and treat my car with the respect it deserves but I find marks annoying. It's a stunning colour but seems to be picking up little marks easily.

There seems to be kits available in the us for reasonable money but none ship to uk.

Can anyone recommend a firm that sells kits or will fit clear film to front and arches etc.
(Ps I live near swansea Wales)

Many thanks in advance

I had my M6 completely covered by PaintShield using Xpel Ultimate film, could not recommend them enough, but they are based in Peterborough which is not exactly local. They sell kits for various cars, I don't know if they have one for the latest M3/M4 yet though.

Interesting, my front and rear arches on my M5 look like they've been shot with a shot gun after 21k miles frown Next time I think it's a must.

Off topic but I've also noticed the steering wheel is wearing badly wear my thumbs sit when using the paddles, a word with the dealer may be on the cards shortly yes
