G6ET8U Playing with Sports Bikes... Silver Donating Members 1,927 Member For: 19y 7m 7d Gender: Male Location: Whistling, GTX. Posted 01/02/12 08:58 AM Author Share Posted 01/02/12 08:58 AM 30 mins? No way!My new ones will have to get the same treatment sooner or later, any tips?New ones? New pipes?I gave it a bit of a clean up with a wet rag a couple of days ago after I couldn't find any (insert Armour All equivalent) in the shed. We have got everything else... that in itself took 30 mins or so. I don't muck around though. It would've been so much easier if I'd just done it with what I used the first time. For interest sake I used Meguiers Hi-Gloss Classic Shine Protectant.It come up a treat!! The top part of the airbox is going to need to be removed to really get in to it but stupid little plastic blowmoulding spots but unless you're really looking (which I am) then it doesn't need to be done.Jack Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78732-going-crazy-on-a-g6et-build/page/5/#findComment-1189426 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 01/02/12 09:40 AM Author Share Posted 01/02/12 09:40 AM Sorry I meant one as in the one in the new car. I'll give it a crack.Have a crack at it mate. It really isn't that hard and as soon as you start at it you'll want to keep going as the bits you've already done will look brilliant. Self fulfilling mate. Start with the fuse box lid, take it off and do it by hand off the car, then see that and it'll be looking like mine in no time flat!Jack Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/78732-going-crazy-on-a-g6et-build/page/5/#findComment-1189467 Share on other sites More sharing options...
