    Hey Rob...long time viewer (of comments) first time visitor (of your thread). How's the honeymoon period going with the new storm trooper?

    So how long is the 'run in period' before a tune for you? It was 6 months for me. Have you made a decision on which way you'll go?

    Hey, Rob. Congrats on your new R. I did the opti-coat last week as well and impress its looks before & after, and still try to see its long term's effect. How's your opti-coat go? Still keep shine after you wash it every time?

    Only washed it once since the opticoat ... I reckon this stuff is like teflon because im finding it takes longer before i think a wash is needed ... Dirt isnt sticking as it use to.

    It was super quick to wash too and super shiny finish was just as good after washing
