This will most likely be my last detail of 2009 since the weather will probably go below 0, and I don't want my driveway turned into a hockey rink. Anywho, this 2009 red Subaru STi was given the exterior protection package before the coming snowfall and salted roads that are predicted for this weekend. I suspect the owner is a rally enthusiast because of the condition which it arrived in. The pictures will show what I mean.

great winter prep ... it seems that he went to a rally with that thing. The only thing missing was the extra fog lights and the mudflaps. NOTE: I'm the worst person when it comes to reading details. I just realized you made the rally comment before I even posted ... I'm a retard.
it was really filthy ... You just done a really good job ... look 2 different cars haha ... well done dude May I ask a question abt TAR REMOVER? when and where to apply it? I still do not understand what is TAR REMOVER use for? I got one duragloss tar remover ... but never use it yet
have you tried to use mothers powerball for metal polishing? my friend uses one on his exhaust and it works great
That thing was filthy. That car is a prime candidate for a gas pw/fc setup Nice work getting that car nice and clean :applause:
Wow..you had your work cut out for you, especially on those wheels. Nice clean up job. Even at 4:1 the Citrus seemed to do the trick for you. I laughed at all the crap on your driveway that came off that thing! You may have to charge him extra for environmental cleanup, hahahaha.
well it is the environment on his driveway lol, all that stuff is natural, straight from environment lol
I have an old 1976 ford f150 that looked like that after playing out in the back field for a couple days ago, but the thing is just a beater not a STI. Nice work Looks awesome. I like the picture up in the wheel well where the crap is stuck in between the wheelwell cover and the car body.
hehe, there were some baked on brake dust deposits on the corners of the spokes...i tried autoglym clean wheels and a tooth brush and they still wouldn't come off. any tips or advice?
