Jan,
Thanks for the quick reply, but I think I'll pass on that pricey magic
stuff, .

Your E90 looks fantastic and your photography skills remain some of
the best on the Board!

I wish I could install them in my X5 as well, replaced the Phoenix Titanium Gold amps
with Genesis amps after all.

Cool. Yep, they are amazing amps and must be fantastic with the Focals.

Again, great job on the 330, she looks terrific.

I saw this stuff first-hand on his X5's tires in Connecticut. He said it was applied over four months ago! It looks amazing!

Very nice work and amazingly sweet car. I have wanted to put an alcantara headliner in one of my cars since i first drove an E39 M5 with one... stunning.

And please do tell what this product is called as i have a few of my buddies that have a privately run airline and could probably hook me up. Thanks and great work!

WoW!

Great job, Jan.

A superb detail on an outstanding ride. I like your choice of products (Menzerna, Lake Country pads, and Zaino). I was going to say that you are a brave man, using the rotary, but then I read rydawg's write-up on Autopia. (Good thread, btw. He was quite impressed, as was everyone who responded in that thread. Your tire dressing continues to be a big hit.)

The mods are top notch, too. I see that Derek and the men at SIM did their usual excellent, over-the-top work. I like the Alcantara headliner and carbon fiber trim, too. A1 Upholstery surely does great work, as I've seen in your 4.6is.

Really fine ride you've got there, Jan.

Nicely done.
