Winter prep?
Do you guys do anything to prepare your cars for winter? Today on my Integra I degreased and scrubbed wheelwells and undercarriage, sprayed rust converter in the wheelwells, sprayed the entire frame, wheelwells and undercarriage with undercoating, and coated the exhaust system with rustproof black paint. And rotated the tires. lol
My Integra is rust free an I plan to keep it that way haha

Wow, I need to take a page out of your book.
I've never really prepped my car. After each snow storm, I do give the undercarriage and wheel wells a really good spray with the hose to get the salt off. And if its not too cold, a quick wash to get salt off the paint.

I just need new tires because mine are getting bald, and I'll need it for the rain that will eventually come here
other than that I got nothing to do

I make sure my power window switches are all working so I can rest assured I can finally enjoy driving with the windows down and the A/C off.

I am sure you EC guys are sick of snow, but for me, I actually WANT to see some snow. I haven't seen snow in 3-4 years now, kind of miss it.

it's a car-drive it
When I lived in NJ and Pa I would make sure I had a supply of windshield cleaner fluid in the trunk. After a snow storm I would have to constantly use the fluid to clean off the salt on the windshield

This weekend was the bomb was it not? If it was like this everyday we'd be in paradise, or as some people would call it, San Diego.

Only thing i do is when the time comes put the winter wheels on, start using a washerfluid with deicer and a fresh set of wiper blades.

I don't do serious winter prep. It's all about how you maintain the car during the winter. I do weekly hand washes in the garage with Zaino Z7 wash and Z6 spray, and an undercarriage wash in the local laser wash (no brushes on my babies!!) after each big snow storm to get the salt off the undercarriage.
