I'm trying to get rid of my wing as well... any non-winged WRB subies out there want to swap trunks?

blang blang...my feeble attempt. "looks good from afar, but far from good" sums up the paint on the front. some day i might take a rotary to it and really cut into it.

It was a great day today, and I had the day off, so what did I do? I washed cars. Cleaned up the Escape (it needed it BIG TIME), then washed and waxed the Miata and Crossfire.

All turned out nicely. Miata's paint took the waxing very well for being 14 years old. I always like having a clean car to drive to work Big Grin

The track pads really ruined the fronts.... took me well over an hour with brillo pads and 1000 grit sandpaper to remove the layer of baked on brake dust, along with a fair amount of finish.

That is my parent's house - just got a real estate agent earlier this week, looking for places in Frederick.
