Nice! FYI you don't need to sand the paint off. Just use some Kwik Strip and it will fall off. Follow up with a soft wire brush to get into the creases. Then you can sand working your way up to 0000 steel wool for a smooth finish.

Got this to match my old F80, haven't found an M3 CS model yet though.
