TTQ B4U Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) And I finally got her all cleaned up. Summer shoes on and body side molding are gone! Why is this important? Because I'm tired of fucking bad news and need to get on with things. Got pics of your ride all shined up? Let's see them! That is all. http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/110434931/original.jpg http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/110408707/original.jpg Edited March 21, 2009 by TTQ B4U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Nice shot. I like how the headlight acts as a catchlight, draws the eye and gives it character. Good stuff as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evan9381 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 how hard was it to ditch the moldings? been thinking of trying to convince my girl to drop hers since she got the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the badges I strip off....little hairdryer action, a plastic spatula from the kitchen and a little tug. Once they begin to release they come right off.

evan9381 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 could probably use some fishing line and a hair dryer then too i guess? maybe ill try that in a couple weeks when we move and i have a garage to work in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiOn19s Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Looking good Tim. I de-badged, polished and put 3 coats of Zaino on the E55 the other day but failed to get any good pictures before it got dirty again. Hopefully this weekend. But here's one of the 996 all detailed up before I put here away for the winter. It did come out of the garage this morning and still looks as good as it did when I put it away. http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q192/ZainoDetail/Picture161.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was initially concerned but I need the exercise and thus tend to park out away from everyone in a corner spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Choose better parking spots. Carry an small orange cone and two half broken bottles and set them in the spot next to your car So long as your not in a front spot, no one will park next to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evan9381 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 door moldings or not, you will get dings. my g/f has a few on her 3, and when we go somewhere, i make sure to park away from other cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
