I’m looking for someone who can do chip/scratch repair, paint correction, and apply cquartz (or alternative). I bought my 328i in May from a friend and I’m just looking to have the paint fixed from the podunk detail place he used. And I’d like this gnarly scratch fixed from a trip to Houston I took Wednesday to drop a friend off at the airport.
Travel to Frisco, TX or the surrounding Dallas area or other parts of Louisiana not too bad of a problem.
Below is an album of the scratch and chips I’d like fixed. There’s some mild swirling around the car. Also, in image #4, those look like scratches but you can’t feel them in the paint. Rub marks of some kind, I assume.

ask your local car dealers that sell luxury marques, specifically the used car manager as he usually will have someone that stops by weekly to recon used cars.

Houston has a place that does cquartz.

I can recommend Auto Shade in DeSoto, Tx.
Perfect paint matching, body gaps are factory straight, parts are all OEM. (No small feat for an out of production Australian import) I see them working on BMW/Porsche/Mercedes all the time. Family owned and operated. I’d take anything I had and recommend anyone I know to them. They won’t take on work just to get paid either. They’ll tell you if they think what you’re asking is ridiculous and make sure you realize what you’re asking. I asked for something a little crazy and they delivered.

PMd a guy from there that posted on the AutoDetailing subreddit yesterday and he quoted me $450 for paint correction and cquartz before fixing the chips and scratch.
Do you have a name or something of the place? I’m 3.5 hours from Houston, but if the price and work is good, it isn't too bad of an issue to get my car down.

I think they might be a bit overkill for what I need. I'll see what they say though. Thanks!

Didn’t think of this. Sounds like it could work out great though. Thanks!

Well, you don’t have to get your car rebuilt like I did. Just demonstrating their competence. They will definitely get it right. Nice sealed paint booth and I’ve seen the main body guy’s hot rod projects. Very good attention to detail. He’s the one who straightened my hood. The RF corner was curled down and they pulled and smoothed and torched it. Looks factory now. I was thinking they replaced the hood until I saw the pictures of them bending it back into place.
