    How to Clean my engine bay

    I let my car set overnight to make sure the engine is cold. I spray the engine area with full strength Simple Green. Let it set about 30 minutes and just hose it off. I start the engine to speed the drying process. Simple Green works great as a degreaser and has a pleasent scent.

    Where to buy black bumper inserts?

    Look close on eBay and you can find the black inserts that turn gold at night and reflect. They also have a 3rd brakelight decal that shows "MUSTANG" when you use the brakes.

    mustang logos

    Use a hair dryer to heat the adhesive behind the emblems and slowly pull them off. If the car is a late model, take extra care not to harm the clearcoat. Don't be surprised to find holes in your fenders behind the emblems. The holes are to insure proper location.

    Ziebart Diamond Gloss

    He's had the truck for about 2 years. Its kept in a garage and not driven much. I think he just bought it to look at. I can't say how good the Diamond Gloss is because this truck is rarely in bad weather. For myself, I'm going with the Meguiars except this time I'm using NXT. Like I said I love...

    Trunk props

    I ordered a rear spoiler for my 2001 Mustang Convertible and it came with new struts/trunk props to compensate for the added weight. I would go to a Ford dealer and get new struts and mention you want the heavy duty ones that are used on cars with a rear spoiler.

    Ziebart Diamond Gloss

    :shrug: Has anyone used Ziebarts' Diamond Gloss Treatment? A friend of mine has it on his Harley Davidson F150 and it looks real good. He said you never have to wax again. Sounds too good to be true. Besides half the fun of owning a Mustang is spending a day shining it.

    Help me with Meguaires new NXT Wax

    Thanks for the help. Looked at the pictures of Bobs' 2001 Laser Red Gt Coupe and was very impressed. I had a 2001 Gt Convertible Laser Red and traded it for the 2003 Gt Convertible and they call the color Redfire. I have a fiberglass tonneau cover in laser red from my 2001 and I put it on the...

    Help me with Meguaires new NXT Wax

    I have a red 2003 Mustang GT Convertible with a white top. I'm going to drive it in the Mustangs Across America drive in April and I want it to look its best. I bought the Meguiars NXT wax but I'm not sure what kind of cleaner/polish to use first. I bought the car new in the late fall of 2003...
