Who It's For

The kit is best for DIY car enthusiasts, BMW owners who need a matched A52 Space Grey Metallic repair, and anyone wanting to avoid the time and cost of a small body shop visit. Its inclusion of primer, Colorcoat and Clearcoat in aerosols plus prep supplies suits people comfortable following step-by-step repair sequences.
