Buy two buckets, a bunch of microfiber cloths, and some good car shampoo. Then go to those do it yourself car washes, use the two bucket method and profit!

Honestly I have had terrible luck with do it yourself washes. Maybe it's just me being so unlucky. If you are going to take it somewhere I recommend pit stop detail. They do a "normal" wash for about thirty. Sounds pricy but they triple purify the water and then it goes through a final oxidation machine. The water here sucks so that's why I go through them. Plus they always have some good eye candy there as well, as in cars just to clarify lol.

Heads up all I have moved from Nissan back over to Toyota. I am a service advisor over at Riverview Toyota in Mesa as of this last week. So if you guys have warranty questions or whatever come on by and ask for Keith.

Well made real progress on the side subwoofer today. Photobucket is being a punk. Tablet wont copy link and forces close, phone wont update with pics taken today so i cant upload them lol. i ordered sound deadener as the side panel isnt exactly straight so i need the deadener to seal off the hole. Im trying an infinite baffle design so it needs to be sealed 100% . Hopefully it cooperates soon so i can show my progress. Im still in quick fab mode so it isnt the prettiest but finished product will b. i also got the amp and eq/line out converter mounted in passenger side well.
