Yeah it was on the hume and I was with friends so we were following each other.
Probably find thats the culprit, because the hume is primarily concrete you do get alot of sand/grit build up (including from tippers which their tailgates dont seal 100%) which creates a sandblasting effect if you follow someone, this problem is amplified in the wet. Ive had entire fronts of trucks look like they have taken to the bullbar with a sandblaster from the same effect and take hours with the grinding wheel to smooth it all back out and polish it up.

Had my black wheel nuts fitted, and am now at Blingwork getting fogs, DRL's, front turn signals and reverse lamps upgraded to LED. They're also finishing the interior light install that I started, but blew a fuse when trying to do the one in the boot.

Did a few things over the last 2 days

Fitted the Ford Performance Catch Can

Lloyd Mats front and rear, also coated them with CarPro Fabric. Can't believe the difference in thickness/plushness compared to the standard ones, worthwhile purchase :thumbsup:

Fitted Diode Dynamics Clear side markers, not planning on wiring them up. Also Fitted the GT350 Splash Guards and Roush Winglets

Also gave it a bath this morning, Concours Snow+ foam wash followed by a CarPro Reset wash and then gave Concours Nova Jet a try. To say I'm impressed is not saying enough, took the gloss level to a completely different level :cheers:

Hey Ed your Stang is looking fantastic mate. Great job on the
paint. How do the side markers come out? Where do you access them from? Was the install easy enough?

Thanks mate. Not even a 5 minute job, all I did was reach up from underneath and squeeze the clip with my fingers and it literally popped out. There's a video on the CJ Pony Parts website in the part listing for the side markers.

There are so many good ones available, however I liked the trick that the bottom section can come up nice if sprayed in gloss to match the decklid

Hi Phil,

Did you consider getting 3m Film protection?? Not sure if this would have provided enough protection but have read some people swear by this.
Cost around $1600 for the whole front (bonnet, guards and bumper).
Yeah I was going to get a car bra for the trip but the misses chucked a wobbly at all the cash so decided against it. Guess it would have been better in the long run, oh well i dont mind, i had a lot of chips before this anyways so at least now i get a whole new looking front. I'll prolly go that clear film once it's resprayed and still keep the bra for long trips
