I doubt it will serve me well. What does experienced members mean, experienced at typing? Or actually owning and working on vehicles themselves. Because that’s the information I came to seek, people who have hands-on information. Not a comfy chair a keyboard and Google. some people just talk...

Mint that mate well done 👍🏻

So took the DPF off last night and cleaned it also took a pre-cat out and cleaned that also.

Cheers man!

You’re a little late to the party with the black wheel hate! Haha, In all honesty they are probably not going to stay black for long, or even the same wheel! my friend owns a powder coating business, After a few curb marks they will probably go to a different colour. 😂

It’s funny you say that about the door that full side has been sprayed, so must be the light or photo 🤣

It’s back!! So impressed by the finish!
