    get a sqirty bottle and spray it around and a bit of elbow grease, degreaser is sweet on everything

    we have pro coated the whole underneath of our VB and found that harsh degreasers dull it down a bit aye, but it doesnt hurt paint

    and for your piping give it a rub down with autosol or brasso, and touching up the paint... if you can paint yourself go hard but if not dont wreck your car with a 5 doller spray can job - seen it soo many times and it ruins peoples otherwise mint cars
