Thanks all! She does clean up nicely doesn't she. I miss being able to have her in the garage all the time though as a garage queen. But with all the work the wagon needed and then the diesel e70 has been on jack stands for a month now Red has had to sleep outdoors for 2-3 months. Soon enough she'll be back in there and clean 100% of the time again.

You all have reason to be worried! The aero bug has an R naught value of 5. Way more infectious than the common flu and the current pandemic!

And there's no cure either! I have found a couple of aero package X5's I wanted to pickup but they were pre-LCI's. I will probably buy the next LCI aero package truck I see...

She wouldn't bother. She'd grab the mini sledge and take out one of the jack stands while I was under the E70. Much easier to make that look like an accident.

Wish Red had the Opticoat on it like Archer does. That truck shines after a heavy rain. You fix the wheel bearing on it yet?

3 days, 20+ hours in now but getting closer. I can't believe the hundreds of tiny chips when you really get down and rub and polish every inch by hand. Oh, well. This is probably the best the paint gets after 190,000 miles and 15 years on the road

Starting on the interior tomorrow I guess. Nothing else to do...
