What present is Santa going to bring or you would like him to bring for your Ferrari? I am getting set of wheels and tyres ( still waiting for the tyres now) a detailing set, and a pair of driving gloves! |

Jeroen, Most of what I got was Meguiers stuff. I think I did a thread on it last Christmas. I'll dig it up... Barry Ferrari's: 360 Modena F1, 308 GT4 Other Italians: Ducati 916, Ducati 848 DD's: RR Sport, BMW 645ci, BMW 1200GS Adv. |

Here you go Jeroen, can't remember where exacly I (sorry my wife ) bought the stuff but it is widely available on line. The machine pollisher is a Meguiars G220. I'm a complete amateur and have been very happy with the results and (so far) not damaged any of the cars I've worked it on.Happiness is...

| No. No regrets. I was a little nervous at first, tested it out on the daily driver just in case I completely f*cked it up. But it's not that hard really. (I got some good advice from a detailer, pm me if you want it) Very pleased with the results. Full machine polish and 2 coats of wax (hand applied) can be done in about 3 hours. Quality "me time".

Good man Stu! I looked at a couple of them online before I got the 645. Now be honest... Did you buy it for her just like I bought the 645 for my wife...? Barry Ferrari's: 360 Modena F1, 308 GT4 Other Italians: Ducati 916, Ducati 848 DD's: RR Sport, BMW 645ci, BMW 1200GS Adv. |

I didn't know you got the diffuser as well? Was this at the same time as the challenge grill? I was watching some pictures of your car the other day, and i have to admit it looks amazing! That challenge grill makes such a difference! P.S take it easy on the turkey my friend! ![]() Who am I to talk, I have had turkey for 3 days in a row so far and there is still lots for tomorrow..... | |

Sweet diffuser!!! Santa dropped off the payload very early this year and kept his delivery runs with a new scuderia engine vent. Now he's going to drop off the carbon intake plenum and evaporator tank cover. Santa's been uber good to me. |
