Great thread, really appreciate everyone's photos and inputs. Coming from an E46M, just purchased my '12 E92M...
Decided that i'm going to go with the BMW cleaner for the occasional once every quarter cleanings, then go with Swissvax for the once a year cleanings.

In regards to the plastic panels on the doors...what does everyone recommend there? It seems as the previous owner liked to hang his arm out of the window and right where his elbow would sit is now a dull/matt smudge spot where as the rest of the plastic sill is a slight shine. Any advice?
Thanks,
Chris

Wait, you're new onboard and haven't introduced yourself properly with pictures..?

Sorry man I've been a bit busy after the recent purchase. You may have seen my previous post from this morning actually detailing why. Warranty issues from the dealer that I bought it from on Saturday. I'll do a proper introduction and photos soon though I promise.

Thanks for the input!
