Serious Cleaning Today Well, today I finaly got around to doing what I have wanted to do forever.
Clean the inside of the salad shooters
I also decided I would clean up the engine bay and detail it some. I also sprayed a bunch of Gunk under the motor and down the underbody. I took some pictures, but not many. I kinda forgot sorry.
Here what the wheels looked like before.
Heres where it went from there. But I forgot to take pics when I was done. They all came out pretty good, minus a few spots.
I also cleaned out the fender wells and such, but I didnt take any pics of it after I was done.
Here is the wheel mounted.
After the engine bay was done.
A pretty successfull day. I took my time on the engine bay and used a rag and some simple green, not a water hose. I used sea foam afterwards and the car run great still.
Not bad for a 12 year old car if I say so.

Travis, I Highly doubt my car will ever be as clean as yours..
I used a combination of Eagle-One Tire and Wheel Cleaner and Simple Green. It took a couple applications and some scrubbing with a good stout brush. I didn't get a picture of it, but on each wheel there is a small spot coming in about a inch and half from the inside ege towards the middle. Each wheel has this same spot in the same place. I can't figure out why, but oh well It still looks alot better.
Oh and I didn't know my front shocks were orange too..

What did you use to clean the inside of the wheels? looks like it came out pretty good compared to what it was when you started.

That didnt cost me too much.
I am wanting to get those aluminum caps from thunder racing and the throttle body plate. I saw one I want last night.
