When my car was new it had M Sport suspension delete as an option back in 2011. My car is a 23i M Sport Highline.
There is nothing wrong with it but as it has covered 52K I thought the shocks could do with a refresh as they are also 14 years old.
Now I looked on Real OEM and the springs are no...
I tried this today. My car was already prepped polished and ready.
The results were very impressive to say the least. Very easy to apply. I applied with a DA and let it flash for 30 mins. Then buff off. Very impressive 👍

So I was looking to improve the look of my wheel nuts. They were not bad but showing signs of age.

So firstly a big thank you to B21 for selling me the complete kit.
