Very nice... what wax do you use and what do you use for your wheels? Is it just Armor-All?

I dont like using Meguiar's, I used to use their Hi Tech #26 Yellow Wax and that stuff was annoying to remove especially out of plastic trim, and didnt give as good of a shine as i liked. Im using some wax that Motorcycle people use now and its much better, its a paste wax but it applys like liquid so easy to use and take off and looks good too.
