My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.
Clean detail. Car is a little to gaudy for my taste, but clean none the less.
What's up with the Bilberry wheel cleaner, what would you compare it to?

i would compare it to p21s wheel cleaner gel from the little I tested of it, it was just as good.
