New z4 owner

[BM1]

Welcome mate, I get mine next Saturday thanks to Ste, The sponge is great for applying tyre products but you probably already know that lol Bilt Hamber is my goto product these days!! after getting caught up in all the hype and spending a fortune on crap i didn't need but smelt nice.

True story the smells and sniffs alone sell products these days lol, designed surely by these folk supporting scented candles at ridiculous prices, I grew up running with the autoglym range and old habits die hard, at least a pretty Zed is worth the efforts of costly gifts.

The AG range above also including the fabric hood cleaner came to £92, (which arrived as ordered but they never phoned to announce)

Titan silver metallic is 354, I had a can made up to paint the frame of a mirror for a friend matey in the shop said there is
a few different versions of titan metallic depending on the year whether there is any truth in that I don't know?,
If you go to a proper auto paint shop and not halfraulds they will be able to make a up a can or a touch up pen
for you

Cheers for the heads up, different versions based on years would surely baffle halfrauds and probably catch me out too so hopefully not the case, don't think I would count on halfrauds
for the Zed for much anymore especially paint, different with the previous car being a Seat.

Haha cheers man, they're only 18s, being in the VAG scene for so many years I'm used to the smaller wheels the msports were a little curbed too and I needed new tyres so had these for a bargain off here, and even the owner selling them made a bargain too = win win (I made him an "offer he can't refuse")

Welcome to the forum! Good start to your cleaning supplies (minus that sponge )

:lol: :rofl: thanks for the welcome, sponge came handy for cleaning my knees yesterday, bought some metal polish added to that list too and more mf cloths (I change them after ever wash now )

You can never have too many MF cloths

I need to get some metal polish myself actually, spent ages cleaning the carbon from the tailpipes but didnt have any polish! :headbang:

Nice little touch today getting the car ready for MOT next month - the red third brake light was not all it's cracked up to be so ordered a clear one from BM direct for £45 which wasn't bad, definitely liking the clear against the silver (it's the simple things in life) :driving:
