Sounds great! Think I'll have to buy it when I get my next pay check from work :)

Hi! I'm thinking of buying the Pinnacle Interior kit for my S2000. Is it worth the money? Pinnacle Concours Interior Kit is the perfectionist's kit for leather interiors. Anyone here have tried it, and can give som feedback? How about the Vinyl and rubber protectant? I do have some Meguiars Gold...

Ah!.. Then I understand. Looks great! :D I'm still trying to decide between just polished, and polished + clear coat. It really isn't easy..

Is it just your lips that are polished, or is the whole rims? It's really want the lip nice and shiney, but I'm not sure how often they would have to be polished if they are uncoated.. What type of road do you usually drive on? Mostly asphalt/tarmac?

Yeah. That's exactly what I mean. Is there any chance of NOT getting the milky appearence with clear coat?..

Yupp, they are two piece rims. I have a friend with BBS two piece rims on his BMW, who got his lips polished last year, but didn't get them clear coated. He says it needs some maintenance, but it's not that hard. The thing is that sand etc stick to the lips some times (he drive a lot on gravel)...

Yes, it's BBS. The reason I'm thinking of sanding them, is that the clear coat is damaged. So what if I sand them, polish, and then get a fresh new layer of clear coat?

Hmmm. That could be an option, but I think it usually looks better without clear coat. More shiney if you know.. And the lips have some light scratches. So maybe I have to sand it anyways..

I'll have to ask Tandis when he is going to order from AG next time, so I can order with him! hehe. But the lips on my rims have clear coat, so I have to sand it off (if that's the right words) before I start polishing.

I have allready polished an aluminium lip for my car with the Powerball, and it worked fine. It will take some time to polish all four rims/lips, but it's possible I think. Do you think the Powerball mini will be the best for this job?

Hi! I just parked my S2000 for the winter (yes, I know it's too early.. :(). So. I'm going to polish the lip on my rims. I'm thinking of first, remove the tires, second, split the rims, and then start the hard work.. Do you guys think it would work OK if I first use very fine "sanding paper"...

Do you mean this?: 1Z Einszett Metallic Polish Wax Free Bonus! I also love the Pinnacle Liquid Souveran wax, but any other recommendations for wax? Thought we could try something else for fun.. Do some testing.. ;) hehe

By hand..

Thanks for quick reply! Yes it's metallic. But I forgot to mention he don't want do spend a "fortune".. :p He thought the Menzerna was a bit to expensive.. Any other recommendations?

Hi! Looks like a friend of mine is going to buy a new (for him) car. It's a 1992 BMW E34 525iX, and the color is "calypsorot"/burgundy(?). Will get the car next week, so he wants to buy some car care products for his new baby :) Any recommendations? Polish and wax is mainly what he's looking...
