Wow - that's a great shine :thumbsup:
Can't wait to try out my Topaz once the weather improves - hope I can get that same glossy wet look :thumbsup:
What colour Red is that?
Thanks I do like the Topaz it's great for giving the car a quick Polish and keeping it looking clean. Colour is Crimson Red I would like to see it next to a Melbourne Red one in real life to see difference properly.

It is superslick that Colin :) Melbourne red i think ?
Mr Wilks it was you who got me on to the Topaz Polish after seeing the results you had with it in the detailing section.

It is a great product just so easy to use. I have got my Dad using it now as well on his grey Lexus. It really makes the metallic on that sparkle will grab a picture of it when I am next round.

I'm another user after Mr. Wilks tip-off, echo the comments above & add my own ease of use approval :thumbsup:
Marlon has still to use it on his zed, its such a rare colour that I'm tempted to rename it "Marlon Red" :P

Never seen the 1M wheels on one of these. Offsets look pretty sweet, I imagine there's no spacers used?
Do you have a photo side on?
Looks good, nice variation on the CSL theme. :)
They're pretty flush but might get away with 5mm spaces! People saying they're not compatible are wrong! I had stocks on with 12mm spaces and they rubbed these don't... bought them off a guy, they only had 220 miles on from new he had a 1m in the garage with 200 miles on and got brand new wheels from BMW (£2750) because he had 2 of mine refurbished and couldn't live with them :rofl: :rofl: I paid £1400 for mine. Next to the 1m he had an e46 CSL with 56k on and on the drive a brand 235i daily driver :driving: crazy!
