    Got some free samples of 3M Performance Finish

    Thought I'd give you guys a quick overview of the 3M Performance Finish I recently used on my truck.

    Not Happy: Nissan oil filter now made in China

    I just got my new 10-pack of Nissan OEM 15208-9E000 oil filters from Courtesy Nissan in TX. My current stock of filters were all made in Japan, but the new boxes say Made in China!!
