First off, Tire Wet = I say just get some $2.50/can tire foam to clean the tires that wont leave it greasy and sling all over the side of your fenders.

Second, I'd say !TransAm, stainless license plate bird filler, smoked or cleared corners, and polished calipers. That should hold you over for about a month and shine it up!
