Is it difficult to keep this color looking clean? I really like the look of it but it would be my first darker color paint.

My work place is in a pretty dusty area, and that was a huge factor in me deciding to go with Bluestone. When clean though, MB is an epic colour. |

I've had a few dark colour including black but last car before this was a 330d msport touring in white. I've gone back to this blue because it is so rich and yes difficult to keep clean but not impossible.

Do a ceramic coating. Then no worries.

I was quoted around $1800 for paint corrections and then crystal serum ultra ceramic coating, is this a good price and product?

I used gtechniq c1 and exo. I polished using scholl s20. Windows done with angelwax h2go. I haven't washed my car for 2 months and after a shower last night beading was awesome...

I know it's not the best beading out there but after a couple of minutes at 60mph all that water runs off and leaves a pretty shiny car...

Bottom edges of wheel arches
I have med blue and noticed the front edges of the side skirt (behind front wheel) and low rear edge of bumper is prone to chipping and gravel rash? Will post up some pics if I get chance.

That's so sweet. I came across yours when I was trying to find a photo of one that will look just like mine when it arrives (March) hopefully. I'm having a slight regret on not going for the lighting package. After my CA told me the tunneling function is disabled in the US I decided it wasn't worth the extra $.
How do you like the standard LED headlights? The black kidney grill doesn't seem to be an option any longer, I may have opted for that as well. Chris |
