--Alignment day--
So speaking of alignments who would be interested in getting one and around when? I am going to be ordering camber plates this week but it can take 3-5 weeks to arrive.
I was thinking the weekend of April 19th. Weather should be getting better and clear of any snow. I am sure everyone will have any sort of coilovers installed by then as well. Let me know what everyone thinks and I can start working out a group day at fastrack.

No, not getting one earlier, just debating getting new tires and having someone (with care put them on and dismount mine) or try to get through the summer with my set I have on now...which would probably be no good in any other weather than sunny and warm..
That week or around then is good for me..I'm in

Here is what i got for a quote

I used to do it by hand, and still do if its in a small or odd spot. But I use a 90* angle grinder that I have a small buffing wheel attachment for and just turn the air pressure down on the compressor and use that. Takes everything out in literally seconds. But like you said using a terry cloth and light presure does the trick too does the trick, just a lot of elbow grease. Just FYI also, use the rubbing compound on your head/tail lights if they have rock pits and scratches too. It takes everything out and makes them look brand new. I do it every 6 months or so and it keeps them looking like the day it rolled off the show room floor!
