I completely agree, I used to use the HD wax and it's great stuff.

However, since using Bilt Hamber wax I wouldn't go back. Apart from the fact of how long it lasts, it's far easier to use.

Re: Where to buy E30 M3 Black Bumper Strips (Tape)

In fact I've just changed mine from red to a matt black, which looks close to OEM as far as I can see in pictur...

A bit of wrapping......

Decided to do a cheap fix on my tired looking door trims. This is just a temporary job as I will get round to painting it one day, actually quite a good colour match to the original paint. Certainly looks a lot better than before and cost me nothing! Before.. http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u26/s...

Re: EBC discs and pads ?

Ive said it before but......Having used various different combos over the years I am very impressed with EBC. I run yellowstuff with their own discs and after 2 years of use and 2 track days they are still performing very well! I can assure you they have had a lot of abuse too!
