Default Spring Cleaning... Spring, what!!!!!!!!

Seems like spring has come early - whatever happened to winter???

Also, thanks LRC94 for helping w/ the cleaning efforts


Spent the day w/ the SuperNatural, doing a bit of spring cleaning :cool



Spring cleaning, WHAT!!! It was in the mid-60's today, and it felt a bit like spring, so with bucket and soap in hand I set out to clean some grime from the car.



Here are a few pics from before and after - The front suspension was CAKED in road-grime and an aerosol can of brake-clean did the magic trick on the auminum parts...



Before:







After:









LRC94, busy working

Nothing looks as good as that aluminum suspension all cleaned up.

...round # 2


I spent most of today doing some more - I also found a silver metallic sharpie to be a VERY close match to the silver caps on the wheels :cool



It was fun to be out there - hadn't spent that much time, in a long time, cleaning the car...
