    Meguiars NXT wax is just....OK

    I just tried some of the new Meguiars NXT wax on the hood of my ride. I have to say, it wasn't all I expected of it. It wasn't as shiny as my Nu Finish or especially Zymol. When I put my towel on the hood, it didn't slide off like it normally does with the other two. Not worth the $14. I'll...

    Can I still hang out when its gone?

    Since I am selling my explorer, will you guys still let me hang out some here when I get my Tacoma? I figure my 9 years with an Explorer might do some good still and I still love reading everything the site has to offer. I might even upgrade my status to elite "Tacoma" :D

    Will the wiring harness that you get for the Hella 4000's handle a 130 watt bulb? Do I need to upgrade the fuses? They come with a 100 watt bulb already.

    What type of prep work is necessary to paint chrome. I'm sure you have to scuff the chrome up and then prime it or something. Am I missing anything? What should I scuff it with?
