Default Early Spring Cleaning







Well, after the foot of snow the we received last week had melted, out came the hose. 75 Degrees today, perfect cruisin weather.

Yes it sure was the day for it. I did the same. Every surface inside and out got treated to a toothbrush-style cleaning and followed up with appropriate "products". I took the time to treat the leather to a two-stage Lexol process. It's nice when the car is spotless...

I replaced my plate cover and surround. It had gotten a bit nasty.

The pics were taken under the Kent Narrows Bridge on Kent Island side. Its a nice area by the water. A perfect place for a GTG.........

Your photos inspired me to take my squeaky clean car out and photograph it near a local landmark.

Got to 85F here yesterday; set a record! Washed & primped my 07 Cpe. All these pics have me looking for a spot around Upstate SC for new pics.

Here's a shot I took this morning in front of the BMW Zentrum at BMW's manufacturing plant.

Amazing pics but this one and the first post (under the bridge) are my favorite.

When I was putting these up I was thinking the same thing. It's funny because when I bolted that bad-boy on there it interfered with the rear hatch, but I got one of those big honking springs that lets it whip around and after that it was all good!
