Default I let my OCD run free today!

I havent cleaned my engine compartment since i bought the truck in febuary, so it was due.

sorry, no before pics just imagine the average daily driven motor

i lost track of time but it was a project...


And of course the outside, two weeks ago i tried a new wheel cleaner, that was a little harsh on my polished turds. So about 5hours with a powerball later I was able to get them shining better than ever.

Well I clean my truck EVERY time it gets dusty, so maybe.
I also clean anything that can be seen from the road, oh and it sometimes causes stress if its dirty
