BMW M3 - E90 - This one is a mess

A 2009 BMW M3, okay no bashing the customer has absolutely no
time in to keep up with this car. It sits outside and its a daily
driven car. He's in the field and he lives in it. So after this full
paint correction inside and out he has agreed to give us the car every
Friday to upkeep it and keep it looking like this.
Take a look.
