your whitey C43 does she show any yellow stains in the paint?
these stains are age related.
i had a buddy having a white color car, it turned yellow after a few years of wear n tear use.
take good care of your car, she will thank you

Funny you ask that, there are two small spots that are yellowing from somebody's touchups, about the size of a quarter. Other than that, the paint is still looking amazing. I baby the hell out of it. It gets a full clay bar every few months, polish, & wax. If you guys have never clay barred your cars, try it. It usually takes me a full day, but it's totally worth it. You'll be amazed once the clay removes all of the imperfections.

It's kind of what it sounds like haha, a bar of clay used in combination with a detail spray. Clay removes embedded contamination that a regular wash leaves behind. After using the clay bar, the surface should be as smooth as glass.

i just spray my car with solvent to remove flies and insects splashed all over my car, then hose her down with water, i don't do anything else.
guess i'm lazy about doing wax on wax off to my car.
luckily she doesn't get that dirty.

Welcome, what's your plan with the bumper? You said aesthetic things will be changing, what do you have in mind? Find yourself an Avantgarde grill. Be warned, most of us are quite the group of Purists over here

Being that the . Bumper is already not stock, I planned on 1st, fitting it much better, 2nd repairing and altering it to match the hood lines a bit better. I'm looking at another grill as well, I hate that one. I almost want to get smaller rims, those 19"ERS are a pain, and the 30 series tires are not really great for the amount of driving I do. I've picked up 4 screws in the last two months, on the expressway, tires ruined before I'm even aware there's a problem, gets pricey....lol
