Hope the weather holds out for you; I'm still banking on one more snowfall so short of cleaning everything under my hood (where I've found the dreaded LNF oil leaks) I'm holding on a major detail.

Oh, I just noticed that. Glare. They used to fog when I first painted them, almost a year ago.

Yeah, it's supposed to rain here all week too, I just wanted all of the salt residue off.

Same here. Might as well go swimming instead of driving anywhere. Hopefully next weekend i can dedicate a whole day to cleaning and detailing.

Detailed my Cobalt yesterday. Took me over 5 hours to do everything (including swapping to summer tires and giving the winter tires/rims a good scrub down to prepare for storage).

Sayonara, Winter! Don't come back any time soon!
