When I picked up my car, they had just parked a new Red 135i... it was very nice, however....it just can't compare with the Black.

The Graphite is a good choice, have not seen one in person....

Overall, I think the Jet Black looks the best, however will be the hardest to take care of.

There's pro's and con's either way.... Its all personal choice...:biggrin:

Looks great! I'm looking for a new wax to try so maybe i'll give the NXT 2.0 a spin. Did you hand apply or use power?

Where'd you get the black and white rubber tiles? Inquiring minds want to know.

Hand applied, Let it haze (10-15 minutes) and it wipes right off. The longer you leave it on, the easier it its to remove.

The only time I use my flex polisher is to remove swirls/scratches from the clear coat.
