Yesterday, she got a wash and then I applied a coat of Meguiars Ultimate wax to check it out. My first impression is that it is the easiest wax I have ever used and it looks very shiny. Unfortunately I awoke to rain today so she is sitting under her cover in my garage.

onzedge - so is that like an upgraded version of NXT TechWaxII? :)

NXT is a super easy polymer for sure. great results too. i use an even easier product for polymer... Prima Hydro. just spray while you wipedown your car. lasts 3-4wks and can use on glass and all plastics. even if you accidentally get it on rubber bits no issue.

phil over at www.detailesrdomain.com has them. i buy by the gallon. :p

Installed JDM rear fog light and the Z Sports horn. Thanks to Jomer (FB NIssan) and Scott (NissanRaceShop.com/Fontana Nissan).

I use NXT and thought it was easiest. Ultimate is better. It is more expensive too.

cool. better as far as shine or durability? i use Griot's PaintSealant on my dd and that thing has got like this incredible super shine like Zaino... even on my white car it shines. i tried it on my black car i thought the car dissappeared as it was so super reflective. :icon17:

thanks, i'll check this out during lunch. :tup: i have air horns in my G35C and they sound great, but with the separate compressor it takes a split second before sound comes out... which means when i lock the doors i dont get the quick chirp. i just hear the relay click. :D does yours actually chirp? :)

It chirps but I turned it off and just have the flashing orange whe I lock the car. Had to take the entire front off but it was worth it! You can get the sport horns from Scott at Fontana Nissan. Cheapest I found and very fast shipping.

Well you pretty much have the same weather as Vancouver, BC right?

Yes very similar to Vancouver BC! Not that its the only reason, but the rain was a major decision factor when it came to color choices. Even though i bought her in TX i somehow new i would be back :icon17:
