I haven't taken any pics really of the exterior dirty, mine is an ASM so it looks clean even when it's dirty.

But, I do have these little gremlins that like to ride in the backseat every now and then.

Hahahaha...You'll be looking at your avatar remembering the "good times" while cleaning that shit off!! Dayuummm!!

Hmmm...sooo if they are love bugs, does that mean that is "love juice" all over the front of your car?

I owe that other dude an apology (pravin.george) or whoever. He said he got one of those hideous bras to use because of too many bugs! I laffed...but if he saw your ride...he laffed last! If I go anywhere on a long trip, Imma wearin' one of those ugly ass black bras! Anything besides bugs "juicing" my car! Hahahahahaha!

I have rules. No food or drink while riding in my car. Bottled water is ok. If you bring soda, you take the bus. But I have to let my gf slide though.

I allow dry snacks and clear liquid for my two year old in the car. I have made eating in the car such a big production, that the wife does not like to do it anymore. It has taken a long time to get it this way, but I got sick of finding old french fries and dried milk stains all over my first Gen. When I picked up the newer car, I had to lay down the ground rules.

Back OT-- I could not imagine getting all of those bugs on the front of my car. I detailed mine a week ago and my wife immediately took it to see her mother who lives in a rural part of Georgia. I spent hours getting bugs off, and she went and found fresh ones. Nothing that some quick detailer and an MF towel didn't fix though. I don't know what MiaQ is going to do for this car. I may have had about 10 bugs and that was a pain, but I think every bug in that state found the front of your car. Good Luck. You HAVE to post "after " pics when you get it cleaned up.

Not even my gf can eat/drink in the car.


MiaQbn23, Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover will do a great job on the clean up.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I'm with ya MiaQbn23. I make the trip back from El Paso to West Palm Beach, All I can do is laugh, and get to work. Hell, When I do make that trip, I have to stop twice to wash her down. And she still has hair, teeth, and eyeballs everywhere. Doesn't show on the 05' WDP as much as yours though.

She dresses up nice though when your done. Sweet ride

Sittin here in my little room right now.

Struggles cool. Where I am, is easy. (in comparison to my first tour, Bahgdad 03)Way north. Nothing really happens here. But got some friends that go out of the wire. I just pray they do thier job better than the enemy does his.
Thanks for the support. I'll be home soon to hook mine up!!!!! WOOOOHOOOOOO!!!

Dark blue looks great when clean and waxed. Mine is silver and dirt doesn't show much. I just came back from a trip to Skyline Drive through Shenandoah National Park. I caught a few bugs along the way, but nothing like the posted pics.
