also debating on a grimmspeed license plate relocater but I actually like where my plate is at now.

How have I not contributed to this thread yet? 
Here's my black and yellow:
I have the worst combo of paint and wheels ever, when it comes to keeping it clean. After one drive, the paint is dusty and the wheels have black brake dust on them. It's a challenge to keep her looking clean, but definitely worth the effort 
Obsidian FTW!

I hate to follow bayarea3is awesome looking Obsidian but here is my car after ONR wash today. Let me just say it's been pain to keep it looking clean here in MN but I been trying to keep it looking this way! Unfortunately this usually only lasts for 1 drive! 
I recently had FormulaOne Pinnacle 30 put on all windows &rear with 3M Crystalline 90 on the windshield. I also had XPEL Ultimate PPF put on full bumper, full hood, full fender, a-pillar, side mirrors, roof line, door cups, door edges & rear bumper ledge. It's been only couple days and there are still bunch of air bubbles which installer states will go away in couple weeks.
Tomorrow friend who helped me detail my car and apply Opti Coat and Opti Lens is coming over with Pinnacle Black Label Coating Booster and Coating Detailer. After we apply to this I'll take few more pictures outdoors and post but for now here are some pictures of my car inside my garage.

Permanon vs. Black Label Coating Booster
Bob, who has been helping me detail my car came over with few products to apply over the Opti Coat. Every time he comes to help me I learn a ton on detailing my car. He really has a lot of experience and knowledge that I'm benefiting from.
Permanon
http://www.autogeek.net/permanon-platinum-coating1.html
Applied to front bumper and grille.
I've never heard of this product until Bob mentioned it to me and brought over today to try. To apply you simply spay it on after you mix it with water and then blow it off with air blower. Very easy and results look very good. End result is that deep wet looking finish. I like!
Black Label Coating Booster
http://www.autogeek.net/coating-booster-extender.html
Applied to rest of the car.
Bob got some of these for free to provide reviews and he brought it over so I could try on my car. You apply it like spay and wipe wax but it's meant to go over coatings like Opti Coat. It's little more work to get this applied but you get similar results as Permanon. To my eye it didn't seem to have the deep wet look that Permanon gave but you decide. Pictures below.
Now if someone could come out with something to keep salt and snow off my car I'd be set!
