I generally wash mine every week. It's been over 3 weeks and two rains, so it's dirty inside and out.

Before I washed mine last week it was about 3 weeks. I was just seeing how dirty the wheels would get in that amount of time with the Hawk pads. In 3 weeks they didn't get nearly as dirty as the stock pads would get them in 3 days.

I wish you guys lived closer to me or vice versa. I feel so left out of all this If you guys all still leave here in a few years I'm gonna come for a few weeks and find a local place to stay.

Before I re-did my grille I had to fix my daughter's car this morning, her 07 kia optima. The wiper fluid pump quit pumping. Found the intake of the pump was clogged. Apparently there was some sort of old dried residue at the bottom of the reservoir that came loose when it was refilled with fluid. I took the screen off the pump and flushed the tank out. Now it's all good.

Good to hear you got it taken care of Stealth. Grille looks fantastic... love that front end. I am thinking about getting a new valence... maybe just a stock one from a junkyard, sanding it, then painting it the Arizona Beige. Same with my dorr handles... I hope I could find those cheep at the junk yard. Projects for the spring or later ths fall

Yeah, I have so many projects to do I don't know where to start. :o

I also had no idea the FX2 grille mod was going to be that easy. I started with a chopped off bottom 1/3 of an FX2 grille and ended up with what I have now. I wish all mods were so easy.

Thanks for the warning! Let us know when it's about to happen!
