Mine's pretty dirty in the same spots, that back bumper on the corners are always the worst. I gotta wash it all the time or else it just ruins the look lol. Sadly, Winter in the NW won't be a nice one for the CL this year.

I'm still running the dirty fall wet leaves look. Automated car washes couldn't touch it. Least I got a coat of wax on just before November hit.

That would be primrose and yeah the bow obviously has to go, wife liked it, but I love the pattern it made on the hood. I'm not going to wash her, it's too great.

This is as dirty as it gets.

Today it got alittle even worse...i dont like to keep much salt on it though...i usually power wash it every 3rd day but my locks freeze alot and screws me over for a bit. Yesterday my gas door froze shut...pain in the ass and looked like an idiot at the gas station.

Mine was a nasty mess from the salt up north in Columbus OH. Washed it my first day back in the salt free south. Should have taken a picture first, it was about on par with Mxyomatosis.

Such is the beauty of living in the pacific northwest. It just rains here, never snows. so everything just gets uber muddy. so no salt to mess up my nice rims. and i wash it a lot anyways when its all dressed up.
