i went to the car wash and sprayed the pre soak in it then washed the car and then lightly sprayed the engine bay down after. avoiding the top of the motor. then drove it on the highway for 10 mins to dry it off. then when i got home i wiped it down with a rag and then sprayed armorall ultra shine on EVERYTHING and wiped that down adn it left it lookin brand shiny new!! tongue.gif

loookin pretty good.
tint those tails and BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST
and do something with the interior to make it work with exterior..
something that would look nice IMO would be a black dash, with orange pearl.
and then some nice black 'racing' seats with orange inserts... will give it a very nice look, but still remain clean at the same time.

Anything you're afraid to get wet, just wrap it with a plastic bag....I'm always worried about the battery and the wires coming off the terminals, so I just wrap it up, rinse it, spray some Simple Green on everything...let it sit for a minute, if you're as picky as I can be sometimes, you get out a toothbrush (Engine bay of my Charger is immaculate), then rinse everything down, dry it off as best as possible, then just let the engine heat from either driving or idling dry out the rest.
