Haha, a golden retriever will be too big for this car indeed. But I love golden. They are very nice dogs.

I’m sure he’d love it. Matches the car too being a white one. Might take him for a short drive for giggles…. Gotta be ready with the vacuum though haha.

There is no sheen, as in zero sheen, with XPEL Stealth. Zero. See my photo above.

It was most likely a different product, but I didn't like the look of it on mine.

There are PPF made specially for mat paint. Mine has the PPF and it appears no difference from the factory Frozen Gray. You should give it a try - save a lot of hassle.

Appreciate it. Already had the ceramic applied and it's working beautifully. The rims repel the brake dust with ease. I'm impressed with this ceramic.

Thanks.. it's been stressful to say the least. But once everything settles down I'll have a 3-car garage with my own garage door and spot for the Z4 away from my asian wife's driving.

Sounds like the stress of a door ding will go down significantly.

Oh yes... between the wife AND my child... absolutely. Of course, I still find the largest or farthest parking spots I can find whenever I go anywhere.

If you drive the M40i around a bit, park it and then start it, the engine blips to just over 2k RPM for a sporty and rather loud sound. It's fun, though today I went to the grocery store and when I came out, there was a police car (occupied) a few spots away, windows down. I was like, well ...maybe I let the car sit long enough that it won't vroom and get a bunch of attention called to me. Nope. I drove away slowly ...

I noticed that too. It is fun but not liking the attention.
