I definitely recommend it Being a newer car, you may not notice quite the difference upon first use that I did, but regular use will help keep the trim looking like new for years to come.

I also had a chance to try out the Adam's Carpet Cleaner. It worked great on the seats and the door panel inserts. I need to get a carpet brush though; although it worked, using my fingers to agitate wasn't ideal.

Yeah, I know It sucks they didn't take care of you; they're missing out on a great customer. At least you have other high quality products out there to choose from I've been able to get most of my products from them on sale/clearance at good pricing, plus I like supporting a forum sponsor. If you get the chance to use their product(s) without giving them any of your money, I recommend you try it

As I was driving the Z today in a spirited fashion, I thought about Mr. Onzedge recuperating at home and thought we should all wish him well. Get well soon sir.

Thank you!!!

It'll be a while before I am driving the Z again. Hopefully no more than a few weeks.

The way it looks on the tires is perfect IMO. I have some Meguiar's Hot Shine that I've used before, but I stopped using it because it was way too glossy for my taste. This is much more of a satin finish. I love that it doesn't make the tires look like they are dressed; it makes them look like they are brand new. I can also confirm no sling at all. If I had to guess, people that get sling want more shine and are applying a heavier coat which doesn't really work. If you want lots of gloss, there are other products out there that will give you your desired look.

I also briefly tested the Adam's Deep Wheel Cleaner on my wife's Acura. It was still dawn this morning, so I couldn't really see much in the way of color change. I was duly impressed at the amount of grime it removed without any agitation. I will have to give it a more thorough test some other time. The smell is a little powerful, but it smells almost delicious (like a mix of candy and cough syrup).
I have been using the Meguair's Endurance tire dressing and am happy with it. It is not too shiny and lasts a while w/o sling.

Today I learned that a slightly leaky sandwich plate does not = "OH GOD THE MOTOR IS BLOWN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

Also I went ahead and had those rotor caps powdered solid red to match my calipers.

i'm not so sure they are. i remember my stock ray's center caps being ribbed. i'll post up a picture.

BUT why i ordered them from Japan is because they were 1/4 the price Nissan wanted here.

Today it rained like crazy. Let the wife drive the Z to work since she is 2 min from the house. Well, she isn't home yet. Starting to worry about the car!
