Looking good! Why did you take the gear shifter off?

I hope I win one.

Nice job. You've got great polishing skills. I use a 7424xp on a step down transformer and have no heating issues.

Where can I buy these on line?

Pockets, you've got a sick sense of humor. Perhaps I should try to take a 'behind the beer tent' picture at this year's Oktoberfest and make it my avatar...Ha!

Sno Brum must be sturdier than it looks. Where do I get one?

Welcome SSG Spitz. I was in Iraq during DESERT STORM and again in 2003. The last assignment I was living in downtown Bagdad (way outside the Green Zone and not near a military camp). My whole time there I don't think I saw a singled detailed Iraqi car. Bagdad might be a good market to move...

Welcome aboard happpyboy. I lived 4 years in SC (Sumter and Ladys Island) as kid in the mid-70's. I remember the humidity, the food, and the great fishing. Felt like fall in mid-September? That's different. I'm sure you'll enjoy this forum.

Sorry Loudog. I misread what vayber said.

You're probably right. I was trying to save some cash by doing it myself but I'm not skilled at this type of repair. Next month when I put my snow tires on I'll take the wheel to the body shop and pray it won't cost me a fortune to repair.

Removing snow by hand is the safest but just a royal pain.

Here is a picture of two of the three dinged up areas of the wheel rim. Is there anything I can do to get this out?

Give me a few minutes and I'll take a picture. I need to figure out how to post pictures. I'll check the FAQ.

Welcome Gary. I hope you enjoy it here.

Yeah that Sno Brum thing looks pretty cool but it doesn't look sturdy enough for heavy wet snow.

I knew it! You didn't get your tetanus shot and the Doc's not happy. Ha! Seriously, if you can make that interior and engine shine I will be truly impressed.

I believe he is looking for advice on what package to purchase. From the looks of the paint on that car a would go with Meguiars 105/205 combo if you have a PC. If you're applying compound by hand, 3M makes numerous compounds you can use. I just don't know which one you have.

Yep, 200 euro fine! The Germans say the dirt, grime, and soap from the car wash on your driveway pollutes the earth and contaminates the ground water. I guess the thousands of drunks at Oktoberfest urinating on the ground outside the beer tents is less contaminating.

The dealer gave me an extra $400 off the sale price as compensation. Now I want to fix it.

Make sure your tetanus shots are up to date before you start that job! I'm surprised at the condition of the interior and engine compartment at only 54,000 miles. Looks like it was in a corrosive environment as the drivers seat looks worn out and the interior is sun damaged. I can't wait for...
