Gave her a well needed scrub,

degreased and pressure hosed the engine bay, cut and polished the whole car... got rid of most of the sun fade

Cleaned!

yeah its a big difference with the whole car, it had lots of carbon specks and sh*t built up around the front wheel wells,

looks heaps better now (better in person than the pics give it credit!)

had steam pouring out from the bonnet just after and when i pulled up at the lights... bloke in the truck next to me had a worried/puzzled look on his face :lol:

Changed over my aircon/clock/voltmeter bulbs to LED's

i don't like them... they're too blue...
now i don't know whether to change all the other bulbs over to LED's to match or try and find some bulbs to return it to stock boringness....

Opinions?
