[QUOTE="KL2DC, post: 193030, member: 3452"] Wow that's quite shocking to note, not like BMW's paint job is exemplary to begin with. The paint on ex-Germany E90s for e.g., have noticeable orange peel and is quite soft (vulnerable to chips and scratches). Btw orange peel is an effect of painting from high to low, wet sanding would reduce this but no manufacturer wet sands their new cars (maybe RR). And BMW's cheap too, if you look in the engine bay, the paint is left unfinished. So if CKD is worst than CBU paint then you're better off getting TiAg, as it'll hide the defects (and damages) better. Fwiw, I think Lexus has great paint, check out the new LS460 and you'll see what I mean ;) [/QUOTE]
