Meh i can save $300 by cleaning it myself i have lots of time on my hands, since i'm only at tafe.

I've been off my p's for like months now.

I'm not bagging a car ever again unless i do front+rear.

Just the rear looks gay because the front sits high as.

As for the bonnet protecter, i'm leaving that on for now, my brother rekons it looks good with it. I am doing audio and sht first then i will be doing the looks.

And i really like my black 18's from the Spack.

When i take the doors off to do audio il get the window tint done at the same time so i dont have to take them off as often, and when the dash comes out also il give it a good clean aswell.

2morro i am giving the car a wash and a bit of a clean just a wipe down over the interior and carpet cleaner over the carpet and seats, then il go into more detail on washing the interior when it all comes off to do the audio :). I've got it all planned out haha.

good to see you got a v8 man :D, you weren't joking about it being a bit ruff tho lol least you will be able to see a big difference once you clean it all up ;)

just a hint, id just use a **** load of degreaser under the bonnet, under the guards and under the hole car to get rid of all that red dirt stain it has, just the $2 cans that thay sell at crazy clarks etc work good enough. thats what my dad uses on his 4wd when he has been on big off road trips. also the meguiars "quick out" interior cleaner works really well with cleaning the seats, roof and door cards etc

cheers scott
