    thanks Dave, i went with the Sonax CC36 system. it was around $80 shipped on amazon prime. several youtube videos online showed it was very easy to apply and had good hydrophobic aka water beading properties with 1-3 year paint protection. it isnt chip protection but water, tar, bug and UV protection mainly as well as swirl mark protection etc.

    I applied it myself. washed car in morning with dish soap to degrease it, dried the car off with a water blade, let the car sit in the garage for a few hours while i went and ran errands. used a spray bottle with a 50/50 mix of water and alcohol and a microfiber towel and wiped the car down to remove any final grease/contaminants.I didnt need to claybar since the car was just painted and polished with in the last 2 weeks. then started the sonax application around 5pm and finished around 9pm.

    ended up not liking the 19 inch VMR wheels. to big and looked just big for the car. stepped down to 18s instead. got the tires mounted and car lowered in the front a bit more. as the car sits this morning.

    lol thanks guys. i dont think ill get a receptive crowd here.
    i posted these pictures on 4 groups e46 related and one M3 related.. the nly group that had crickets for the most part was the ZHP group. i would say 98% of people in the ZHP FB group HATE stretched tires or offsets that push past the fenders while other groups are pretty much ok with it even the M3 group didnt care. ZHP group pretty vocal about it go figure.
