"Different." Good choice in words. Beautiful detail. (I'm not sure the car deserves it.) Why no Sonax on the wheels? I'm guessing that the Sonax makes less of a difference on black wheels. I was planning to keep using P21s on my black wheels, and the Sonax on the silver wheels on my BMW. You may have reinforced my decision.
