Worked ALLL DAY on this car today, washed, clayed, and waxed it til my arm felt like it was going to fall off! But damn it looks good! Also picked up my magnetic race number plaque and applied the FR rally driver stickers, just need to get some American flags for em! Pics are god awful as the sun is stupid strong right now and I don't feel like breaking out the real camera.

BTW, I just pulled down your Momo's out of the attic, they are gonna need a good cleaning before install, they've got that garage attic dust and smell to them. They'll clean up quickly so bring your supplies

[warneej]

Good to know! I'll get the cleaning kit packed!
