      Looks good.

      For the headlights, you can use plasticx to remove fogging. Ford headlights have a tendancy to fog up, I believe.

      Did you spray tire shine onto the treads of the tire?

          I do, but only at shows so it sits for a while after, and I have to drive over grass after (it pretty much all comes off)-but you're really not supposed to (it can really reduce traction-I think it says not to on the bottle/can of most tire dressings)....

            no your not supposed to... i think it kills traction because of the slick finish it creates

              Hi all,

              Looking good there ...............just a thought, when you take pics next time find some trees or even at the house/garage..............I did the same as you have and sometimes the reflection can be very flat

                Also, the insane shine can sling into your wheel wells when you start driving. Quite messy.
