MyZmZm said:haha, awesome! a word of advice (even though I'm sure you know this) - whatever you use on your wheels/tires you NEVER use on any other part of the car. EVER.
which ww towel did you get? please tell me it was the monterey... that towel is so plush and softoh yeah, PICS!!
Awesome!! Isn't it just soooooo nice? I'm tempted to ask Patrick if he has any larger ones - so I can have one for myself as a bath towel!khaosman said:Monterey for the win! All my old stuff--mitt, mf towels, and whatnot will now be wheel duty tools
No pics yet, she is still dirty. They are redoing our street tomorrow which means two bad things: dirty street! and I have to park it on a back street as I wouldn't be able to get out of the driveway tomorrow. Poor car, she doesn't know what is like to live out in the wild--she's used to the sheltered life of a garage. At least the car is so blacked out people won't see it at night. Hopefully they won't run into it though, hehe
But at least she does have a driveway; there's no way in hell I'd leave her on the street!2003newlyack said:

Looking forward to seeing them when you have cleaned her up. Living in the wild... lol Unfortunately, that's all Morrigan knows as I don't have a garage
Hey, don't jinx yourself (or her): One of the local guys had his car nearly totalled because some nincompoop driving a garbage truck with the side forks forgot to lift them up while going down the alley. About 10k damage, iirc - went down the entire side of the car. (omg)
Good luck! It is a PITA. Mainly due to getting the lights apart. The flippin' silicone used to hold the lens onto the light housing is insanely strong. Use a flat-head screwdriver to help pry it and keep going along the edges. Mine did not come apart easily. I found that if you stuck it back in the over for a couple minutes and then went back to prying, it helped loosen the glue. The project was a major pain like I said, but totally worth it. I don't have pictures yet, but it looks great. I also broke the little stupid bumper mount thingy on the headlight assembly putting the bumper back together. Bah.2003newlyack said:
