Ive given up on cleaning my inner barrel. They don't have a step lip, so the amount of dirt that gets on there is insane. I have really open wheels, so its not hard to clean it, just a pain in the *** to upkeep.
Having your wheels ceramic coated with definitely help not only keep them cleaner but make them easier to clean. My shop applies Modesta coatings and BC-06 is an amazing product that really works how it claims.
They're also using Merlin's Blood to clean those wheels @Flannigan Or something similar.
That purple colour is the reaction of the active components in the wheel soap with iron particles on the wheels.
I attached a universal lip today to my front bumper. $25 from Amazon, but there are other cheaper vendors. The finished product is excellent, but I botched the install a bit. I was afraid I wasn't gluing close enough to the edge of the bumper and ended up applying it too far out. As a result, there's a slight gap between the edge of the lip and bumper when you look really close. Also the very front of the lip is not uniformly straight.
I think I will end up removing and reapplying it with new 3M adhesive. It bugs me every time I think about the fitment.
Installed the eBay strut tower brace. Getting the brackets around the wires near the battery was a pain. I'll take a pic tomorow, it was dark by the time i finished.
The unexpected bonus of having to deal with the repair is that now I have a brand new bumper cover with no stone chips nor holes drilled for license plate mount!
