Its pretty easy....just time consuming, and addictive. when i started on my coupe, it just made me want to tuck/hide/remove more and more lol

Child is back, ur the reason I even started moding my ej1. Cause I loved ur coupe.

Subscribed for sure! Glwb

yeah its a cleaner/degreaser. works pretty good. Its best when you spray it and then wipe the areas down with a wet cloth. Simple green usually breaks up a lot of the caked on messes, so that's why i use it.

Cleaning dirt out from under places nobody would ever see without taking stuff apart is good for the soul. Makes you feel better knowing it's REALLY clean. I get sucked into it and suddenly four hours have gone by just wiping stuff down with degreaser wipes and when it's all put back together, barely looks any different lol

I'm saying one of the first mods from someone in your position should be security.

no garage before....i was in some bad apartments on a bad side of town. At the time, i was saving up to get into a nice home away from all the f*cktards. They just got to me before i could get away. My car was towed and then hacked to bits. driving it away would'nt have worked...and since there was a towing service working directly with the apts, it doesn't look suspicious when a car is getting towed off with alarms blaring or anything. Also didnt help that i was on the backside of the building on the 3rd floor. I dont know how many times i went fully sprinting outta my apt to check on my car.

cleaning continues.... pressure washed a bunch of nasty dirt from under the car. It looked like rust at first.
also sprayed the muffler a plain silver





Dim and burned out lights gotta go...




super dirty panels...had to clean em all. Puts a lighter load on my air fresheners




cleaned up the gauge cluster plastic glass as well





I used plain bulbs, no ambers, and i didnt re-use the blue rubber covers on the bulbs so they have sort of a 4300k output visually

Putting money side for some coilovers right now. Then I'll get rid of these bicycle wheels I'm riding on. I figured I'll do the cheaper stuff later. Saving up is usually a pain
