Looks fun! Hope you checked your suspension components for dirt/dust as well. Also, be careful not to hit the manifold when you are washing, nobody likes a cracked manifold!
Cleaning that would be a chore, but I honestly clean my car 4-5x/yr meticulously well enough that it would probably clean up a mess like that.

Nice vids and pics! Being a detailer I would hate you if you brought that car to me like that ! On the plus side I would have made a lot of money

Thanks all.
Yes, About a week after i put the car on a lift and cleaned everything as much as i could. Everything is fine and no squeeks of anysort. Interior is clean again but there are some squeeks in my vent area due to dirt i believe so i gotta take that out and clean what i could.
In less than a Month i will be doing this again.
Well worth it

in my oz the heat/ac never really turned all the way off. it would always stay on just a tiny bit but if heat was on you could feel it. maybe urs is doing the same and idk dirt got in. But to fix this couldnt you just tape up the air vents under ur wipers, stoping all air from getting in including dust

We'll see what happens on the 23rd. I won't be as outgoing as i was the last time but i'll still have some fun. I'ma limit myself so hopefully my car won't be as dirty as last time.
lol
