Well since my car is a mess with salt all over it i thought i'd post a pic of it. If your ti is covered in salt let's see some pictures. I took 1 picture today when i went out to my car to get a magazine,it looks white from the side but i ran out of space on my phone. I need a mega wash once it warms up a tad. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 12-16-2005, 02:11 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: Malden, MA Posts: 672 | Every picture in my gallery has my ti covered in salt........lol Damn that sucks. __________________ "Power Rules, Smooth is Fast, Late Brake if you HAVE TO, But Always get the Inside Line.......and Fear No One." | | | 12-16-2005, 02:16 AM | #3 | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 | Quote: Originally Posted by Juni Every picture in my gallery has my ti covered in salt........lol Damn that sucks. | The salt just blends in with your car,except for your rear bumper. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 12-16-2005, 02:22 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: Malden, MA Posts: 672 | Quote: Originally Posted by Tyler The salt just blends in with your car,except for your rear bumper. | She needs a bath BAD!

It awesome here right now, 23 degrees with about 15" of snow on the ground. I'll be in Florida in 19 days, that's the only thing keeping me sane right now.

At least try and rinse it off. If not, get it done quick! And make sure it's touch free. __________________ I scream, you scream, we all scream for ZOMBIES. | | | 12-16-2005, 12:54 PM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: Malden, MA Posts: 672 | Quote: Originally Posted by aceyx If you have a hose at home, spray the crap out of the undercarriage and buy yourself one of those Mr. Clean wash things.

Otherwise it is between -10 to -20 celcius (10 - 0). When it warms up all the snow that has fallen melts and makes for some sloppy driving. Luckily there is a carwash a block from my house and I have a warm garage to let my ti dry out. | | | 12-16-2005, 06:44 PM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2005 Location: Boston MA Posts: 221 | Quote: Originally Posted by Juni Thats the thing, I have a hose outside on the side of the house.......but its frozen SOLID! | My garden hose in the driveway is frozen too. I did try to wash my car last winter on my driveway, ended up with a thin layer of ice covering the car. Going for a car wash is now $15. __________________ 1998 BMW 318ti M-Tech Sport Silver (Gone to member leeko617) CURRENT: 2015 BMW X1, 2004 BMW 330ci Convertible, 1998 Porsche Boxster, 2001 BMW 525i Touring GONE: 2000 Audi A4, 2002 VW Passat, 1985 VW Cabriolet | | | 12-21-2005, 09:46 PM | #14 | doesn't care about you.
