Nah, dont smoke and wont ever. Just drink but not excessively. I work at minimum wage too but work ALOT- I sacrifice alot of my time but still manage to party on the weekends. Nah I havent been there, I go muddin and offroadin on my friends land and at covington or wolf river bottoms. I just got it lifted, coil overs, rims and tires but had a leveling kit. I won alot of my money though, thats what bought my car and alot for my 150

Alright here we go, this was the night before the Mustang show, ended up getting a trophy, so it paid off.

Do the car first, then the wheels. Here we go.

1. Two bucket method, I sadly use a sponge.
Product: Megs Deep Crystal Wash

2. Dry that s*it. I also had a little electric leaf blower that my mom randomly had to get the water our of the cracks and such- didnt have a picture of it.
Product: Synthetic chamois

3. Clay bar. Spray the detailer supplied on the clay and on the panel, make sure is lots of lubrication. Clay, then wipe down with microfiber.
Product: Megs Clay Bar kit, Cobra microfiber towel.

4. Wax the car. Tape off body panel borders with blue painters tape to not get wax on it. Get some wax on the applicator pads and swirl around then wipe with microfiber and drool. Didnt get a picture.
Products: Wet Obsession wax, cobra microfiber towel, any applicator pad, blue painters tape.

Wheels:
1. Rinse down. This is after the car is cleaned and finished and waxed and stuff. Water might splatter a bit around the wheel on the fender but you can jsut dry when done.
2. Used a hard bristle brush for the wheel wells. It was really hard to do this since my car sits to low, i turned the wheels 2 times on each side to try to get as much as I could.
Products: Hard bristled brush from autozone.

3. Rinse down rim and scrub with a soft bristled brush. I like to use the mist setting and scrub at the same time. Then spray with wheel spray then rise.
Products: soft bristled brush from autozone, black magic titanium wheel cleaner.


4. Scrub the tire with a different hard bristled brush to get off crap and old tire dressing.
Products: hard bristled brush from autozone

5. Dry wheel. Dry tire with a crappy rag. Dry rim with microfiber.
Products: Crap rag, plush microfiber towels
6. Dress tire. Here i used the foam for the first time, either i did it wrong or it just didnt work. It seemed to run down onto the rim or i put too much. I normally use armor all tire gel.
Products: Megs Tire foam


Extra.
Windows: Spray invisible glass spray and wipe with crumpled up news paper.
Trim: To restore and clean up use Mothers back to black on a terry cloth, just apply on the terry cloth and spread, no need to wipe.


DONE.
Now get a few brews and eat up.

just an opinion but i would say keep the calipers black.

i guess i can do a future mod list too. ha

hopefully black bullits 18x9 front 18x10 rear for christmas

lowering springs hopefully before

8.8 rear end w/ 3.73 maybe some posi. not sure yet.

thats as far as i'll probaby get for a while

then port upper and lower intake and heads
stroke, cam, and forge
m112

but i'm probably just talking out my ***.

Mine arent painted right now, but the yellow will look sick-, it will be real eye opening- check it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmKbgtsHcO4. Keep your 7.5 rear and save some money. get a Detroit TrueTrac, those are very strong. That way you can keep your 7.5

Yeah, I'm looking into going into engineering or something in the science field. But yeah that guys car is sick. Well there is some other place that I forgot the name of that people talk about mudding so I was thinking its that since you asked about my truck. And street racing, I cant really- I have my license suspended til April 23rd 2009, three speeding tickets (13 and 14 over, then 21 for street racing) See this is my time to save up FAST, thats why I will have that entire mod list while making minimum wage easily
