Front plate brackets are still installed at the dealer level, correct? Not at the port?

Allegedly BMW will carry them over for the G87 production beginning in December even though EOP for the G42 is the same month.

One would think since BMW wants to make a large production of M’s 50th anniversary that they would want to reveal the G87 sooner rather than later? Initially they were going to celebrate the 50th for a full calendar year.

Careful with that stuff. I have a very small amount in my car and you have to be super careful with it. It scratches if you look at it the wrong way.

The cube will be easier to take care of.

Yep, 100%. I have a fair amount of it in the F15. It is a PITA and definitely not for those with OCD (me).

Speaking of car OCD!

I have a micro fiber cloth and special spray dedicated to only that part of the dash and the info screen. I have not once touched the gauge cluster. I heard the LCI 2 series gauge cluster is a giant scratch magnet. I just blow it off with canned air. Lol.

I use a plastic cleaner/polish on gauge clusters. It is intended for aircraft windshields.

No kidding. You're talking to someone that still has 5 jars of Carnauba wax that are unused. I know Ceramics are the rage, but I hate to waste the Collinite wax I've been using forever.

I wonder if anybody here still is using Zano, or has some of it still sitting on the shelf.
