Went to see a M40i in Misano Blue with Magna Red leather (had put a deposit on it), but I didn’t like the colour combo..
However I did walk away with an order for a Frozen Grey / Congac leather with options - with a very good discount Should have it in a couple of weeks... Any tips on looking after the Frozen grey paint would be appreciated |

Normal finish, the scratches would have polished out in seconds, but with this finish you can't polish, so you're stick with any scratches and chips. If it wasn't a lease, I'd have got the xpel covering, so if you're purchasing the car, I would highly recommend budgeting for Xpel. Alternatively, gert a normal gloss paint one, and put the savings to a mat wrap in the color of your choice. |

XPEL Fusion Plus is a ceramic coating - not a film. The film that I had installed was XPEL Stealth, which is the matte finish film. The piece on the hood is one piece - no seam - and wraps the edges. The trunk lid has a seam because of the severe curvature of the spoiler, but you have to look very closely to see it because the seam follows the edge of the spoiler. I am extremely happy with the end results.
