What have you done to your P5 today?

[bazooka joe]

Cleaned up my engine bay a bit.

nice...it couldn't have got that dirty though from yesterday??

 

[khaosman]

Cleaned! Good picture showing the DGM lip and the painted headlights as well. Some more photos here: http://www.khaosman.com/gallery/wash I waited until sunset but it clouded up too much, they aren't that great. Oh well, maybe tomorrow!

Wow it looks so good! Makes me want black! It looks really good with the blacked out headlights and the lip. the fogs, the reflectors inside the headlamps, and the badge contrast well with the black too.

snowblazin - you lucky bastard lol i can't wait to convert...

i so need to detail my engine bay, just wish this damn rain would stop. i hate not having a garage i guess too i'm putting it off since i've never cleaned under the hood before... i know i have the products, it's just a little daunting because it is sooooo dirty.

Took some pictures w/ my brother and some friends of the newly boosted p5 and company!

Thank you! The blacked out headlight mod is totally worth the trouble, I love how it looks. I was having trouble getting good pictures of the inside of the housings. I'll steal my buddy's nice Canon camera and try again

Ah yes, the never ending cycle of cleaning, once you finish the last thing on the list, it is time to start over again! I need to clean my interior and my engine bay... look at altspace's and imagine the exact opposite, that is what mine is like.

Yes, you Canadian's lucked out and got the headlights that everyone should have! Post pics of your's once you polish them, I'd like to see how that turns out.

You're right. I just spent a couple hours doing some extra touch up and painting to make it super clean.

 

[2003newlyack]

altspace your car always looks like you clean it at least once a day

 

[altspace]

Heh, so true. It helps that it stays in the garage all day. A home office is a wonderful thing at times.

Vacuumed out interior and wax on lunch break (gotta love the ICE for saving time).

Khaosman - headlight mod looks good...still trying to get up the nerve. Let me ask though, does it affect the light output?

Yea, I noticed quite a difference in the light ouput after I blacked mine out.

Seriously? I mean I did mine over two years ago but I didn't notice any difference in light output at the time if I recall correctly. If anything, maybe it just reduces glare. The light isn't designed to reflect off of that part of the housing, though of course nothing is perfect and some does. It may appear less bright when you are outside the car looking at the headlight but I'm thinking 99.9% of the light that illuminates the road is still there.

negative or positive

LMAO Rob, yea that'd prob help huh? Negative, the pattern isn't as sharp as it was and it seems like less overall light.
