the type-s cleaned up!

hey guys the weather here in So Cal is horrible! so i took a few pics of my ride after a quick wash with Optimum No Rinse Wash and Shine. works pretty good, my ride is never really that dirty so this works good for me.

on to the picture whoring



























now for those of you who are thinking of getting a roof spoiler. this is what it should look and fit like, to the edge on both sides and the top edges should meet no step. mounted with 3M window weld adhesive FTW! no double sided tape shit here.

Sarona roof spoiler














comments welcome

i have that stuff, i like the Meguiars Mirror Glaze #26 Hi-Tech Liquid Car Wax better. goes on easier comes off easier, and leaves the paint slicker, i must have like 10 different waxes though.

JPTL...I've always admired the look of your Type S. From the front spoiler to the roof spoiler. You've done the little things to your car that make a big difference. Great job brother!

Car looks really good and super clean keep it upYea, here in NY you have to park your car and pray it looks the same when you get back or there have been ocassions when I park my car very far from others, to come back and see a van parked nexted to it. -_- Sometimes im afraid to wash my car, just for the fact that I might discover a new scratch.
