Before coming to Bromotive, the Harrier was repainted somewhere. It is not clear whether the SUV was repainted at the dealership or a body shop. Because of this, the pillars are not properly repainted, there are paint patches and you can even spot running clearcoat.

Then starts the process, all the bidding, claddings, door pads and both bumpers were removed. The shop also removed most of the body panels, sanded them and fixed the undulations. Then the painting process was started. All the body panels, body and alloy wheels were painted in black.

The doors and bonnet were installed back on the SUV. Then the SUV was waxed thoroughly because of which the paint started shining. The customer was very happy with the outcome.
