Fabulous pictures to say the least! Those photo shots could be used in advertisements!

Well done and I actually prefer the car without the lip.

Cheers,

My car is brand new and I'd kill to have it shine like that! What wax are you using? What's your REAL secret!?

Those rims are sweet... Forgive my ignorance -- do you really put different rims in the Winter? What's the difference? I assume the winter rims are meant to get beat up more? What do your summer rims look like?

I'm from California and I guess we don't really need to do that here.

Its better to be on some rims you dont love that much cuz they put salt like crazy here in Iceland. I It would eat them up. I own other rims (Lenso AP1 whom i use for the winter but they are now beeing fixed so I use the original that came with the car. My real secret is I wash it first with megs nxt soap. Then I wax it with auto glym red wax and finish of with megs nxt hard wax. Thats all.
My summerrims are ASA AR1

im jealous of the euro plates for cosmetic reasons... The US plates are turning into an art contest.

Great photos! What winter tires are you running? I just bought some Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi for my 17" rims...

On the 17" oem I am running on Dunlop winter sport M3. But On my real winter rims I am running on some serious ****. Cooper Weather Master S/T2 with nails. Thats the thing for Iceland. When it gets Icy there is nothing like nails.
