The Official "I just washed my car thread"
Hey BAIC,
So i haven't seen a thread about people washing their car so I thought I'd start one!!! After you wash your car, just pop on here and post a pic of your hard work!!!

-weaver

After a week straight of rain and this coming week of sunshine, she definitely need a bath!!!

You're due for more than just a car wash...Probably even have some iron deposits from your snow trips.

Yea silver hides dirt well. But your paint is probably not healthy.
