OK Sizzle Chest:
I had to look closely at both the wheel spaces and the tinted side markers. The side makers were a little harder to discern, until I realized that those yellow/amber markers above the the front wheel on the fender were "gone" and now the Macan side profile looks like a continuous flow of paint color without the former safety-inspired yellow rectangular markers interrupting that perspective. Very nice touch! Yes, a very nice subtle change that does indeed help the flow of the vehicle!
Not so sure about the wheel spaces, other than the sightly wider stance. I also assume now the outer edges of the tire stick out at the bottom of both front and rear fender wells. Not sure if that will pose a "problem" of road debris getting kicked-up on those areas. Yep, they will kick up a bit more debris, but they look great and allegedly help the handling characteristics with the wider stance.
It sometimes boggles my mind how you Floridians have such a "problem" with water spots, but that is the type of water you have there and use it extensively for your irrigation of lawns and landscaping that is an integral part of Florida residences and businesses. Up here in Northeast Wisconsin we have the "problem" of summer-time tree sap and bugs and winter-time de-cing salt and binder residue, so I guess it is a trade-off no matter where you live. I agree with this: No matter where you are, there is something `regional` that is an issue.
Excellent detailing work on the Mecan. Two things on this detail jump out at me:
1) You are using the Garry Dean`s shampoo. Either you are using it up because spent the money to try it out and now have it and/or you really like it because it seems to be present in your list of products on many of your recent details posted. I like it and had a gallon of it.
2) You used Megs new M110 compound and M210 polish on this detail. Just trying these out as an experiment?? What are your thoughts on this correcting/polishing duo? How do they compare to Griot`s Garage BOSS compound and polish that seems to be the "standard" for many of your details? Yep, I believe Merlin had them listed on a few of his jobs, and I decided I wanted to try them out. They are a dynamic duo! Not as user friendly as the Griot`s duo/trifecta, but very close. I may need to dial in my usage-I was getting some `balling` of the product and the work time was shorter than the Griots. But overall, both excellent products. They can be a heavy hitting duo for some correction!
I ask because:
1) I AM Captain Obvious, the man of a thousand questions (or as my other half says, "You embarrass me ALL the time. You`ve got to be the nosiest person in the world!!" Hey, "Inquiring minds want to know." I say "Inquiring", she says "Nosy"; you decide!)
2) I am sure other Autopians want to know what your highly valued and respected comments and opinions are about this correcting/polishing duo. Finding a good compound and polish that "works" and is reasonably affordable (IE,a good value) is a highly-debatable and sought-after subject within this forum.
