ive been wanting to wash my car for the longest, but it just keeps fucking snowing ! And i dont have winter rims, so my 18's are exposed to salt which really fucking pisses me off . It was either buy winter wheels or buy books, n i need the books more so i guess ill just have to get them powdercoated once the summer rolls around to repair the damage to the finish if any occurs. I fucking hate the winter









No, this isnt a new oreo style painjob n i didnt paint it 1/2 grey or something. its salt/snow . I hate the shit. she hasnt been clean for 3 weeks ! Hows everyone else's CL's fairing in the winter weather?

haha mine looks just as bad, except i havent washed mine for about 2 months

my CL is sitting in my driveway covered in snow. I cant afford winter tires nor insurance during the school year, and winter tires are a must in Canada. It's either freezing rain or 20 cm of snow niether of which is safe on all seasons. I hate winter.

My car was washed the other day. It snowed a couple hours after. My car is parked outside, while my moms dirty car was in the garage along with my dads. Therefore, my nicely cleaned car was covered in the snow. Wow did that depress me. But yeah, my car was white before I washed it. Now its half grey half black.

And to think that I used to love winter....

Fine...

Yea, my car has been sitting in the driveway since I left for school on the 15th but luckily it hasn't been snowing in CT hardly at all and it hasn't been driven so no salt on it yet *knock on wood* I've always hated winter....

mine was terrible, until i brought it to the car wash today.

but by friday its gonna be all shitty again, i heard were suppose to get a big snow storm.

Nice, I'm not the only one waiting to fire up their CL . How bad is it for a car to sit in a drive way if its not being driven all winter?...i think its been 3 months for me already.

the battery might need to be jump started

that happened 2 years ago, i have jumper cables now

yea, it's not the greatest for your car, my dad takes me car to work and back every week or 2 just to keep it moving, it's not very good to keep cars sitting, especially in winter, and you might get some soft spots on your tires.

mine is so dirty, I can't see out of the rear window.... it's so sad... I can't wash it because it's so damn cold that my door locks are gonna freeze and I need my car to get to university...

It's been kinda nice on the westcoast lately, my baby is clean

Mine's been in the garage all winter, and it's been snowin like crazy here in the burgh. She'll be out in the snow tomorrow though thanks to ZeroCL taking over my garage, she'll be outside with no bumper, grill or headlights, but she'll be covered

i'm in the exact same situation. dirty as hell and i can't wash it because i know that my locks and windows will all freeze.

Join the DIRTY club...

what you guys doin now to his car

Installing my old system in his car, assuming that there's enough coolant still left in my radiator and my motor isn't frozen

that should be interesting

Maaaaaaaaan all you people talking about snow and all... it's like 65 degrees here in Sacramento and sunny as hell. I mean you can walk around in a t-shirt in January here. This is bull!

Yeah really. I cant remember the last time i saw snow...

I saw snow last weekend up in Truckee. I went to Boreal to snowboard with my friends and messed up my right elbow pretty bad. It's not broken but it was swollen and hurt like hell. Shifting into 5th right now is a hassle.

I think I have you guys beat. I haven't washed my car since sometime in August

lol...oreo CL

Yup, that looks like pennsylvania salt, that's why they're out by half way through winter cuz they use too much, fuckin penndot

update: just washed my rear window,. what a difference

hahahha

and i thought my car was dirty

I'm a nooB, leave me alone.

snow sucks, i got lucky and swapped tires A DAY before the first snowfall. she still looks sexy(think chicks mudwrestling).

Damn s :shakehead

This is the dirtiest ive ever seen the rims on a car ive driven...



The lip used to look like this when it wasnt snowing :



Gotdamn snow...

Wash that shit before you ruin the coating even if it is for one day

all i can say is... SOCAL FTW!!!! lol!

dude the snow is fun though. but even you so-cal guys arent far from snow. the mountains are fairly close to you's. you guys can snowboard and ski when ever you want.

Fucking shit...will it ruin my paint too?

just wash it.

nor-cal is closer! It's about an hour and a half drive to Truckee, CA where Boreal Ski and Snowboarding Resort is located.

wax it!

itll take longer for the salt to get thru
