Here are some of mine! We are having a rough winter here! Can't wait to clean her up, but at the same time I'm worried of all the scratches and bumps I will discover

I thought my car looked bad. Yours is 100x worse. Thanks for that.

You just made me feel a lot better about not washing the car for 3 weeks.

Worst is, that amount of grime on the car? That's about 3 weeks of Quebec roads for you...

Here's an old pic:



The sad this was, I got a car wash right after that picture was taken, but by the end of the day, it looked like that again.

The roads over here are covered with so much salt, I can't even see the road markings.
