Just had the windshield replaced decided to coat it with IGL. Don't even have to use the wipers when it rains.

Nice! I just ordered some my self. I didn't realize they have a consumer glass ceramic. I've only seen the dealer installs only up until now

I have the autoteknic trim and am very happy with it. The alcantara goes nicely with my interior (midrand beige with alcantara inserts).

It is a quality piece.

I've been using it for 2 years and I love it. Car Pro has a similar product, but it has mixed reviews.

It comes with a polish and pad to clean the windshield with. It's really easy to do IMO, just follow the instructions.

Got the first scratch in my black X4MC. Unavoidable. Had to take son to football game. Parked as far away as I could without parking in a huge mud puddle. Parked with nobody on either side. When I returned to the car same thing - no cars on either side of me. About a 5 inch scratch at the front part of drivers side rear door. Probably fixable it's not deep at all but you can see it clear as day from several feet away. Can't wait to get it stealth wrapped.

My rear spoiler trim is faded too. I haven't scheduled to replacement yet but I was surprised given I only have 9k miles on my 2020.

Spark plugs are pretty normal around 14k. I think they are technically recommended around 20k for the S58 but that's a generalization estimate and wont apply to everyone.
