Yea it's almost impossible to keep clean, but it looks so good when it is. It's a trade off I guess, but it's still one of my favorite colors on a car

Thanks Man, It has just over 51,000 Miles now, I use diluted Simple Green to clean everything, then use Sonus Motor Kote, it's an enigine dressing that works miracles lol. It's acrylic based so it's not oily which would just attract more dirt, I definitely recommend giving it a try.

When you said you went Brilliant Black, I did not guess it would be so completely modified and still looking so great.

That's a damn deal right there, congrats man.

Congrats man. Glad to see you got back into an 8. Not much looks better than a clean black 8.

That's actually what we call the HD Lip(Home Depot Lip), it's just the rubber garage door bottom that you can get from home depot and it's held on with 3M double sided tape, It's cheap but looks great IMO. I think there's a thread on here somewhere about it.

Thanks, I would have to agree black is just so classic and clean.

Never even realized this thread was bumped. She's very well taken care of, finally got my garage cleaned out and picked up a daily driver not too long ago. So she's babied now except for when I feel like taking her out to have some fun!
