Default Is my car clean enough? 56k=death

I try and keep it clean and it doesn't see a whole lot of anything except sunshine, just thought I'd see what some of the opinions in here were.

Damn. I really like seeing WS6 Formulas. When you look at them people usually do double takes and say is that a Trans Am? Truly nice.

The interior is cloth, and looks as clean as the outside. I bought the car 2 years ago this coming Aug. with 50k miles even and I've put 6k on it since then. With probably 30x1/4 mile passes. I've been meaning to do the molding removal for a while, I will probably do that over winter, that and some clean up under the hood.

I think I'm gonna do the stuff we talked about(front and rear) and the side moldings, but besides that, nothing else to the outside. Under the hood I'm gonna do the wiremod and cover the PCM, the fenderwells need a little shot of black to cover up the little spots under the hood.
