Damn you guys do good work. I'd love to work beside you in your shop for a week just to admire the detail.

x2. great job! you have skills!

Awesome job! Great cartoo.. my buddy had a red one.. lost it in his divorce settlement... he misses the car way more than her!

Impressive!
 

would that wheel cleaner work on any black rims or coated ones only i have the ballistic jesters and i am having a time keeping them clean????? thanks

the sonax full effect wheel cleaner will work well with any wheel. you may have to use a brush to loosen up the dirt and a good tip would be a good pressure from your hose.
