The car looks sexy as hell!

Nath's rims look great on your car too and great reflections.

Yeah the Bilberry wheel cleaner was a pleasure to use and the swisswax brush made it easy to reach the brakes. Like I said, wish I could've given the Lusso some proper justice by polishing the car but alas it wasn't to be. One thing I do want to know is where you got that air pump sprayer thingy. I want one!  :party:


The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I wish I could have taken some decent outdoors shots but everywhere was shutting down and I didn't know any places where I could park.

The more I look at the rims, the more they befit the car - so much better than the Pescaras.

You asking me? lol

I got it from plastics for africa lol.... They are about R80 which is about 4 pounds... They are industrial so wont break too soon.... (Unless you like my dad who drops it... lets it hit the Porsche and then tries to catch it with his foot breaking the handle)

I can post a few to you if you want haha... Maybe do a group buy lol

No Autoperfection - I saw them use one when I went to see them. You just happened to post before I replied.

My biggest fear. Though having said that, not one of the marks on the Pescaras is from parking!

I'm gonna swap the Pescaras back once I get a chance to clean them. I'm more scared of the Monzas being damaged in some way than if someone scrapes the car!

Definitely.

I tried spraying Megs APC with a foam dispenser and it was such a PITA!

It's like a super soaker water gun.

You fill it with whatever cleaning solution, close the lid, pump the lever (which I guess pressurises the container) and press the trigger. You get a continuous stream of solution for as long as you hold the trigger.

Gotta be better than using a standard spray bottle and having to squeeze the trigger multiple times.
