Not that is one shiney car!! Ive got a flash red cupra and wish it looked that clean. What wax do you use? Im using Autoglym super resin wax at the mo and its alright. Those D90's will look mint!

thanks very much mate, i polish it when it needs done, not that often to be honest, bout every 3-4 months. i wax it with either dodo juice purple haze or orange crush, or petes 53, sometimes a mixture of coats of two of them. I also use some zanio products like gloss enhancher and Z-8 final seal. jst depends how i feel really, haha. got boxes and boxes full of stuff, this is just some of it

NOw thats a collection of wax!! They expensive?

not really, dodo juice averages about £31.50 and petes 53 is £22 if i remember right. vicoria wax is also really good, the concours stuff is amazing on red cars!


there is a red cupra with standard white wheels on here somewhere

I love them white! Just wanna show my new porsche brakes off so got some 17" porsche twist alloys. Im stuck for colour too. Either white again or coated in black teflon (easy to clean :))

I Paid 200 for refurb on my d90s powder coated white and tires fitted and balanced. I think it will be somewhere between 150 to 200. What wheels you gettin done? If there standard cupra rims spraying is really the only option but will look just as good and be about the same price. Hope that helps
