Default Finally cleaned up - grills and Xpel
Well, after months of sitting with rubber marks, I decided it was time to get her cleaned up and ready for the upcoming track season. Some Rennline grill screens and an Xpel protection kit were installed. Entire front hood, fenders, and side mirrors. Turned out pretty good. Now time to go get her dirty again.

Looking good. So is the Imola beast sitting next to it. I've still got my E46 sitting in the garage next to the GT3 as well.

Nice! Metzger flat six and the BMW S54.....naturally aspirated heaven. They are the best sixes ever made IMO.

Now if I could just win the powerball and buy a RS 4.0 and a E92 M3, I'd complete the ultimate NA garage, and tell all the turbos to suck it for the next 20 years.

I'd happily DD a cargo van if it meant I had an RS for weekends

My car is covered in xpel ultimate

Rubber ball marks come off easy with their cleaner, but leave a grey stain

I like the idea of the protectant screens for the coolers. Are these custom made or did you buy them?

Second set of CCW's robbed money from the full body kit. Jesus, stop the bleeding already.

BTW - whoever said that CCW quit making porsche fitments is wrong, I emailed John and had a set of C14's shipped in 1 week. Those guys rock.

Clear bra is a PITA
