What have you done to your car today?

[subieboy]

Went to investigate the cost of a claybar "kit" (as it were)... You Kunny Funts want what???

Any one know other options in CHCH for this stuff (Meguiar's/Mothers looked at)...

[Swindog]

Get the meguiars one. Works a treat.

I wash, clay bar then polish and wax it. Takes me half a day but man...it looks awesome; and yes, im talking about my car.

[Timmah]

Is this car polish stuff?

Kinda

It removes EVERYTHING including gunk and polish and wax... It is a bar of Clay with some lube type stuff...

Sweet Swinns will go hunting for a cheap sale item @ supercr@p/R1pco

Yeah I can't stop smiling when I look at them on the car lol. I've still got the original wheels also, I will be keeping them but one of thems damaged but repairable so I bought the grids for that staunch look while I get the other rim repaired. Considering to buy a new factory BBS rim was another grand more than a whole set of grids :o

Rex-Leggy, yeah they are the 9.5" 18s. Rims are a really good fit, I just need to get some wider tires. could go at least a 245 before I may need some guard rolling.

Installed turbo with new oil and coolant drain hoses wrapped with fire sleeve.

Also put downpipe and modified original heat shield to go back on, also syphoned 3 year old petrol out of the tank and pulled walbro out ready for new aeromotive pump.

Slowly getting there, its hard finding time for the car with a 6 month old baby

dont worry I managed to find time to drop the new engine in the week after he was born, mostly cos it was sitting in the entrance way to our house and the mrs didn't want to look at it anymore haha

but that was 6 months ago and its not running yet

[funkytown]

got my auth card scrutineering done today, just wof to do! fixed up park lights, and reattached the side skirt that had come off - it feels complete.. ???

.. started the new round of abomination mods, hopefully be able to test the first part at MM12.

new pads also in the BPE outback, thanks for that Liam.

Heat wrapped part of my exhaust that runs through the engine bay because it's a bit close to the rocker cover

If you are planning on working with exhaust wrap make sure you wear gloves and long sleeves... my hands and arms are itchy as fuck!

[Stoffa]

Soak it in water first. Lots of water.

Use a wad of duct tape to take fibreglass flakes off your skin too
