Clean at last
Well I spent about 8 hours cleaning this thing and managed to take one good picture before the sprinklers at my work covered it with water spots 18 hours later.

Re: Clean at last
Looks damn hot, although IMO the front plate needs to go. Then again, it's more legal your way  .
Bringing it out to the MNSC deal tomorrow? I already saw it dyno, might as well see it all prettied up eh? |

Re: Clean at last
I will probably tint and drop it in the fall or next year.
As for the front plate, there is a fairly large spot of rust on the paint from the bracket. If I can get rid of that without harming the paint I have no problem going plate-free.

Re: Clean at last
Damn, it looked good.
I used to have the same problem with sprinklers at Entronix. You just smash the sprinkler heads by your spot. No more water spots!

Re: Clean at last
Black cars suck. They are next to impossible to keep clean. I have been using this Dupont Teflon spray wax and it works great. If your car gets water spots or a dust on it you can just use a Car Duster and it looks like new again. I went three weeks without washing my car and it looked clean. If it rains though you are pretty much fucked.

Re: Clean at last
Very nice. Though hard to keep clean, not much looks better than a well shined black car.

Re: Clean at last
I hit it with Meguires quick detail and took some more pictures. Some of the water spots are still there, you just cant see them.
Thanks for the compliments, and yes they are DSM sidemounts.

Re: Clean at last
Looking damn good, CVD! Your car cleaned up really well. Nothing looks sexier than a perfectly clean and detailed black car. I spent some good time cleaning mine up the other day too. You, Peter, and I should get together sometime for a hot 3-way pic.
