    What was your first dream car???

    I've liked way too many cars to pick just one dream car until just recently when Lotus released the Evora... So yeah, my dream car is the Lotus Evora.

    Product Review: Eco Touch Tire Shine

    Those tires look very nice. It sure gave them that "brand new" look again, not overly shiny or greasy, just how I like it.

    overkill???

    For my own wheels I just wipe them down with Soapy/ONR towel by hand when I wash my car, every now and then I'll take them off completely for a deep cleaning inside the barrels of the wheels as I cant get at all of it with the wheels on the car. My brake pads DO dust a LOT but they clean up...

    2010 gti i detailed, love this car

    Ok so then VW is underrating its engines for some reason, I think I've read some german cars are like that (dunno why). That engine is actually making a lot more HP than its rated at. Pretty cool :)

    Please show me where VW says its rated 200HP at the wheels, because i know that engine is rated 207hp at the crank and you definitely lose more than 7hp on the way to the ground.

    2010 gti i detailed, love this car

    No man they're both rated at the engine. Golf GTI Mk6 = 207hp @ crank MazdaSpeed3 Gen2 = 263 @ crank Pretty much the only time you get HP rated at the wheels is when the car is put onto a chassis dyno, manufacturers almost never publish HP@wheels as people would just be disappointed with the...

    That's pretty impressive, gaining so much power with just intake/downpipe and a tune. The stock intake and exhaust must be very restrictive.

    My mazdaspeed3 has a k04, its a pretty small turbo. Over 350hp really with that? How much boost do you gotta put through it to get that much horsepower out of that engine.. its already turbocharged and only makes 200HP does it not?

    Shampoo Plus vs. Duragloss 901

    Who cares?? Hes considering switching and wants to know what people think of shampoo plus. You're over analyzing here. I've never used either of these products but found Corey's (Cee Dog) review on Shampoo Plus quite interesting. I currently use Megs Gold Class (and love it) but Shampoo Plus...

    Meguiars towel question

    I REALLY like the Cobra Guzzler and Guzzler Supreme/Ultimate, they are WAY softer than any of the other waffle-weaves that I have used and they soak up more water too. Not the Guzzler HD, I haven't used that one. Still wouldn't pay full price for them though, I got them during a sale. I...

    Anyone ever try Powersheen (for tires)?

    Let us know how this product performs, I hope you didn't get ripped off, bad customer service stinks.

    New Tire Treatment

    First clean them well with any decent All-purpose-cleaner and then dress them with the DP Tire Gel or UTTG. I would personally save the UTTG for trim as it is rather expensive. I use Opti-bond personally, diluted 1:1 it gives me a nice "new tire" look without adding much gloss and lasts a good...

    Meguiars towel question

    I use some yellow ones from wally-world and they do the job just fine without scratching. I really don't see the point in spending 4 or 5 dollars on a towel either. Except for the waffle-weave type ones, because they actually seem better when you spend more.

    2002 BMW M5 26hr correction by Immaculate Reflections

    Thank you for saving that car :) A car like a BMW M5 should be treated with much more care and respect than that one had been before you got your hands on it. Good job, it looks absolutely gorgeous now.

    How to maintain the detailing result??? Any advice will be accepted!!!

    Some paints/clears are just very soft and scratch easier than others in my experience and no matter how careful you are during washing/drying some light marring/scratching may occur. Thats how it was with my 2000 Mazda Miata, it drove me nuts! My 2011 Mazda Speed3 seems to have much harder...
