I got it polished though two weeks ago and then I got it detailed again yesturday arvo coz ive been out on the dirt roads (and yes they ruined it). Neways ive become so lazy now that ive ditched the XR floor matts for some cheap Ford Rubber jobbies that I can shake out on the road, saves getting the vacuum cleaner out!
