Yeah, it looks amazing. What is that "Back to Black" stuff? I keep getting wax on the trim and it's a pain to scrub it off.

You should check out that synthetic wax, comes right off the trim.

on the trim? I never thought about it!! Thats friggin genious!

Oh, and mxs, don't mess around with Back to Black, it sucks and isnt worth the money IMO. Its basically just "Black Trim Treatment", but it doesnt do ****.

i just used that Armor All stuff that ur supposed to use on the dash of the interior of you car and damn it did the trick! i sugest u try it out. just dont get it on ur paint or windows cuz then u'll have to wipe it off with a damp towel. it used to be so ugly and white from the wax and now its nice and shiny.

for the black trim i use 303 aerospace. it protects from the sun and makes grey plastic look black again. i dont really have much black on the honda but i use it on the truck.

but forty, your car really does look amazing. i always wondered how you did it. yesterday i washed and waxed mine and spent like two and a half hours doing it hoping it would look as good as yours but not even close. please post that royal blue number so i can get some of that. but i park mine in the garage and the next day it already has a layer of dust and dirt on it. i dont know if the garage is really that dirty or if thats just what happens without wind.

Thanks guys, knowing my fellow car nuts think this way about my ride is so ****ing awesome!!



oh, I called the people who make Royal Blue about the group buy, and they have yet to call me back. I will call them again today. I didn't post the phone number yet because i was waiting on to see whether or not they'd let us do a group buy and get a good deal on the stuff. But I will post it later today when i get home.
