looking good Thumbs Up

mines black (or it is under all the mud!) and personally i think it really suits the car especially with privacy glass.

Did you have it super guarded when you bought it.
I did and it takes ages for it to look bad when it rains it seems to clean it as the rain just run of it takeing all the dust with it without leaving water marks all over just as though its been tutle waxed but lasts a lot longer.
Super guard is a good protector as well helps to stop the we all get chips.

I'll hold you to that. Surley you must get a big discount from Fortnum and Mason as purveyors to Her Majesty? Another member of the failed FL2 clutch/DMF club, twice.
