i use those 30 dollar pesticide sprayers with water to rinse off the bay. i'll take shots later today when I do the engine bay.

thanks! the car was rear ended and my friend had the 98 up rear parts installed since it was the same price anyway, so yeah it was sold to me that way.

yeah i really dont cover stuff, especially now that I use the pesticide sprayer. I'll use the exhaust port on my wet vac to blow the excess water out, and go straight to dressing
