Even more impressive then, cleanest car on RL that is driven I have seen. Reminds me of Ollie's work. You should be proud.

I don't think either of my LR cross overs looked that good straight out of the box. Did you powder coat the parts?

That was supposed to say cross members (3-piece), auto correction on phone and in hurry. Anyway, mine never looked that good when they were new. However, my powder coated front suspension does look that good, thus the question.

Eddie. I have stated before that I will be buried in mine also......maybe we should buy adjacent cemetery plots...might get a discount that way
Ya my sense of humour is a little off

Oh ya and engine clean with 3M-CC4 cable cleaner...works great and only costs a mere 130.00$ for a case of 4 one litre bottles
