*Bluprint has fond memories of Leshy turning up 2 years ago and leaving his car there, then coming back near the end of the show after going home for a nap

Hey, I was really really hung over that day, give me a break.

Also my car is not a skyline, sorry to burst the 30 car bubble.

With the Count just there and ppl having non Skylines in the list, I now have the tune "one of these things is not like the others...." from Playschool in my head ;)

I've heard of people putting there 32 headlights in the oven, to seperate the glass from the plastic backing to modify the lights etc, don't think you could do it with the indicators though.

4 weeks Till Marques in the park btw.

Yeah, I've also heard either oven or a heat gun to seperate the glass from the lighting assembly, then I guess you just glue it all back together when you're done

The soarer ones were the same deal. Don't do what my mate did and forget :P

Thanks guys,

I'll have a go with a heat gun first, I dont really like the idea of putting $200+ indicators in the oven...

bullet32 go and buy some Meguiars PlaticX (http://www.meguiars.com/?clear-plastic-care/PlastX-Clear-Plastic-Cleaner-Polish) and use that. I use it. Works wonders... just make sure as soon as you ploish it on POLISH IT OFF ,, it tends to stay on otherwise.

For once I'm prepared! All booked in with Details FX :P

hmm went to them last year and was not impressed. They did great work on "what you can see" i.e. main panels.. but they did not do the "nooks and crannys" .. eg when you open your boot the side of the boot wing,, the engine bay was a dissapointment too.. just my 2c

the best place to go is the place down the back of the shell servo in Woden. They do an awesome job, best detaillling ive ever seen. Though my car (and prob many other liners) can make it down their steep driveway (due to low front bars) :(

Are you sure your not talking of details fx in your second post they would be in that general area ??? I found the work they did on my skyline and forester was unreal on the surface but i agree they could have paid a little closer attention to some of the nooks and cranny's

    • I clean my wheels every time I wash the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash and a pressure washer, followed by (inset your chosen name brand) wash and wax, time per wheel is probably 2 minutes total, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, they're also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay ย 
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.ย  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
    • Is this not just about people wrecking, and storing, multiple cars in their front yard? I now a tow truck driver that was contracted by the council to clean up housing commission front and rear yards in houses and unit car parks I'm all for working on, and doing maintenance on your car in your garage or driveway, but some people definitely take the pissย  There's one house locally to me that I walk past regularly where the front yard and driveway looks like a wreckers, multiple cars in various stages of being stripped, and the yard looks like all of fluids are basically dumped on the ground I may be wrong, but it seems that the initial reports, which I've seen nothing actually official about yet, may be getting taken out of context, like alot of the latest "the sky is falling" stuff found on the youtubes for clicks
    • have they? Link appreciated. I live in Casey. I can see both sides of the argument in this case. There's a lot of sketchy stuff going on. There needs to be a clear definition of what this is supposed to be IMO. I wager the intent was to be a broad sweeping brush against people who have 4 cars up on blocks on their front lawn, not someone who services their own car behind their own gate on a weekend bothering probably nobody. But it'd be hard to legislate the difference there.
    • Oh, the wheels were already off. I wouldn't normally take them off to clean them although it does make it easier with the ceramic, so I might take them off when reapplying. I don't drive much but now with the ceramic coat, when I do drive and they get dirty I can get most off with the pressure washer. I'll be switching to dirtier pads soon which was the motivation for the ceramic as I usually just clean them and sometimes use Autoglym wheel protector. Nah, f**k the barrels! Haha, I'll give them a quick scrub when they're off the car and a pressure wash, but even I draw the line with the barrels. Yes, dark coloured wheels allow you to get away with a lot! ย
