Very nice! If you want to be really obsessive you might want to dress the wheel wells.

I don't want to waste my Lexol Vinylex on the wheel wells...it's absolutely fantastic on interior trim but a little pricy to let mud and junk hit it.

Welcome! Is that irregular wear I see on your right front Dunflop? 
The guys at San Diego BMW (closest to me) aren't too thrilled to just give up new sets of tires and I want to make sure I've got my facts straight before I go make a claim.
Anyone in San Diego successful with this request?
Thanks

Very easy to see the reason for the addiction. The car is beautiful. Love the Wheels!

I just looked in your ED album - I am definitely going to do ED next time. It looks like an absolutely great time.

OK, young dudes, try not to fool an oldy here...
Type 37 M Parallel Rims I just get, but what tyres you have - F and R?
Your cleaning and clensing brands are unfamiliar overhere,
but tyres has been cleaned for ages, with silicone and non silicone produces...
Class of '79!

You're right - I noticed how crappy they look after I posted the picture...I've seen a couple brands marketing wheel well dressing. Anything in particular you'd recommend?

I really like some non-BMW rims better (HRE's and IForged, for example) but I got the rims and rear spoiler free of charge when I leased the car...3rd car from same dealer in Buena Park, CA.
Zaino is available from www.zainostore.com. Not cheap, but I love the way it works and looks. Very easy to apply and remove. I could just use the tire dressing on the wheel wells, I suppose.
Class of '88 Rules! Not as old as you!
