Not the best pictures. Tried the new plasti dip spray in flat black on the hood and front air-dam Grilles. Came out a lot better than the pics show. For under $20 was well worth the money. Will get better pics at a later date.

Re: Engine detailed and ready for show.

Thank you everyone! I will see about Detroit. I have a lot of things going on in June. It all depends what happens next week or so.
 


Re: Engine detailed and ready for show.

Thanks again everyone! I keep it pretty clean. I used to wash it every time with soup and water. Now that it's used for weekends here and there. I use Lucas wax & dry to get it wet. Then wipe it all down. Once I am done with that I take wax to the painted parts. Then I go on to the polished parts and polish them by hand and once done I put a liquid sealant on. Then finish it off with some type of tire shine or Finish 2001 on the plastic parts and rubber hoses. This was a quick way of saying what I do and hope that helps out.
 
Re: Engine detailed and ready for show.

You are thorough. I thought I was anal about cleaning my cars. lol

Seriously I take just as much time cleaning.
 




Thank you everyone. I have a lot of money in the blue pearl on the paint of the car that I just never really thought about it. Maybe one of these days with the trunk lid. The strut tower brace I bought like 10 years ago on ebay. I won an auction that I paid very little for it. Thank again everyone, means a lot!
