how easy is it to fit moonroof?? thought about one many times but thought there was bit to much hassle involved...
-
yeah thats it, i use autoglym but thats as fancy as it gets... i use sponge and bucket, jet wash it down, then shammy it... not no more though, my cars getting a respray soon so will be looking after the paintwork as much as possible!! i know i cant go mad for the first 6 months but wil be on it next year!! this detailing, looking at the megs last touch detailer, would i have to use the clay to get it off a week later or just wash it the same?? i dont like the idea of this clay, especially on new paint...
-
oh right nice one, all a bit new to me this... :D
-
also, i use autoglym resin polish, looks great but im useless at keeping it off the trim, leaving white bits here there and everywhere... is there a polish or wax that doesnt leave these annoying white marks around??
-
whats with the clay?? seems the "in" thing...
-
oh right, kool.. sounds good to me, going to kit myself out i think with the bits to do it... thanks!!
-
they do seem a lot of money... with the 'snow', can you not spray it on, leave a while, then sponge over it, jet wash and then dry??
-
You know it makes sense ;) sure does, will be coming down this route in a few months to... :grin:
-
i would go on a club stand with it dirty :lol: be different and show everyone i actually use it... what about machine polishing?? you know anything about that
-
thanks a lot!!!! i defo have to raise my game in keeping my car extra clean!!
-
decat it is then :D
-
looks like i will be getting one of them then... more questions sorry!! does it do a good job?? do you hand wash it after or just power wash it?? how much of that "snow" cleaner do you use each time??
-
is the lance from elitecarcare better than the karcher?? might have to check out Optimum No rinse, also whats these wax clay sticks all about??
-
yeah looks good :D halfords sell them actually, looking at the K291 washer and lance... whats a good polish then, only ever used autoglym and turtle wax... looking at the meg stuff, but so bloody confusing??
-
how do you guys clean your cars, what products do you recommend?? i have been looking at getting a Karcher washer, for foaming mine up... any good??
-
good luck, hope all goes well!!
-
looking good!! just because its a storm doesnt mean you cant put your personal touch on it :D
-
i got one off the bay, fits good, but my rear bumper is off at the min... was about £45 and is made for a corrado
-
even with a "gay" 50mm splitter your rado pulls it off mate, looks awesome, bet it looks even better flying past on the motorway!!!
-
What useless pile of Crap has he bought now........

will be checking mine for rust later... any other areas which seem common?? some rados seem rusty all over, some seem fine?? or is it just the white ones that look rusty :lol: another poor corrado donor car, oh well, im sure you will sell all the bits VERY fast... -
Why its sometimes better to ring the Dealer first...

do it yourself, its pretty easy... wash, sand, wash, spray, laquer, stand back and admire :D

I think I nearly understand what you are trying to say, big ben. I like and laugh at Clarkson's material 99% of the time. Clearly, on balance, I don't expect to be switching Top Gear off if he maintains that form. Common sense & brilliant? Steady, now. :roll: yeah i also know what your saying, he just likes to make a point that we blow things up big time... i think he is a genius though, and i suppose when he does leave the show we will realise how good he is (in this case was) :grin:

cant believe im about to say this......... cough cough......... nice porsche :salute: it really is awesome, thats a propa porsche that :D
