    Looks great.

    I always kick myself for not buying this car, it was such a joy to drive.
    Also, how does the Sonax work on painted wheels? I wasn't very much impressed with it, but if it's gentle on painted wheels I'll have to be using it.

    Thanks Ank!

    He came out and checked on me through outthe process. He wanted to be outside when I was applying INSIGNIS. We talked about it while he watched sheeting videos of it on his iPhone lol.

    Sonax worked just fine, as you can see in the pics! I'll keep on using it, if I can endure the smell :(

    Thank you!

    the GTR's (and other Nissan/Infinitis) have a clear coat which is supposed to blend out light swirls over time with heat/sun
