Yes, I do, just not as much as I probably should, the front bumper could use some polishing, I usually use some old Simoniz in a metal can, that's been in my garage forever, works great though.

One sexy ride.
I used nevr-dull on every piece of trim when I had it all off of my car. Worked damn well. If you have some pesky areas you could always try something like Mothers mag and aluminum polish on a rotary tool buffing pad. That works quite nice on small trouble areas.~David~

Ill have to try that stuff. The 25 year old bottle of Simoniz ain't cutting it
I'm probably gonna pull all the trim off during the winter/early spring, and see what I can do with it at work (I do chroming/polishing).

Rock chips in the stuff will not get buffed out..just less noticeable. Since you are in the business you can strip the pieces down and buff them out (sand first if necessary) and they will look like mirrors. The factory coating sucks with age.~David~

Yeah, I'm just gonna wait until the spring and pull it off and do it right at the shop, we did some of Nemus' stuff a couple months back, and it looks great, so that's the plan.

haha its so true, the bottom half blends in real good with the field. It was a cool road though, except when I had to find a spot to back out when it dead ended at the river.
I was really suprised at the fact that it wouldnt freeze. The water was a little warm, but anything feels warm when its 18 out haha.

Awesome two tone car mang!!! Was that car repainted at one time? (I can't remember if it was or not) I say that because your Ford Emblem is on the wrong side in the rear. And your missing the LTD Crown Victoria emblem also.Comment
