Default cleaning process
I'm pretty excited.
I uploaded my first picture and it was a success.
Anyway, here is the cleaning process.
Hope pic turn out.

Looking Good! Get rid of the plastic covers that go on the A-arms and give it a cleaner look! Feels great to get it done does it not? Welcome to the "Clean Club".

Default Post your "Clean Club" Photos
I thought it would be inspirational to others to post pictures of our car cleaning addictions. I use "addictions" in the plural sense because many focus on all parts of their Porsche. Post what you have and let the pureness shine!! In fact, I think I will start a new thread!!

Cleaning in this manner helps me understand the car better and feel more confident to work on it.
Thanks for the compliments.

I recommend you keep them unless you want to have all manner of rocks and stuff get kicked up into the halfshafts. Even 993 racecars I have seen keep them to prevent stuff from getting up there...

It was a combination of citrus degreaser, gas, WD-40, and brass brushes.
The WD-40, brass brush, and gas worked the best. However, there are obvious significant hazards with gas.

Checkout the less hazardous method, the Xenit way:
