Post your dirty 86
 

Since I've seen another member posting his uh, relatively dirty bumper picture, I thought all brothers from the north should proudly exhibit a small showcase of how beautiful our car look in the middle of winter. Bring out the pitchforks!

Ps: that white crap on the car is salt, not snow.

Awesome thread... I just hosed mine off the other day, but as soon as I pick up a little tomorrow after the rain that comes thru, I'll post!

Thank god I live in California

I'd invest in a cheap winter car instead of driving my FR-S in the salt.

I don't have any dirty days here in Houston. Most the rain and dirt just roll off since I keep it so clean lol
I'm a bit OCD about that kinda stuff.

These are the only pic's of the car i have right now where its dirty. Rim's were just installed in these pics so they are clean but i believe the car hadn't been washed in about 3-4 weeks. Love this color always looks clean until you get right up against it.

Sunlight off the salty road grim taken about a week ago after work... I washed it since haha

ahhhhh salt :bonk: do they rust proof the cars where you live from the factory?


glad i live in sunny cali...:thumbup: just got to watch out for rocks dinging up my windshield..got a tiny one and took care of it before it spreds :mad0259:

^ I believe all fr-s's and brz's are galvanized from the factory, so rust shouldn't be a problem for many years.

On the topic, I need to get a picture of my car on there. It's so filthy, I have salt stains on the roof lol

makes sense now...yeah people that might move to a place that has salty roads due to snow wont have to get the cars rust proof... looks like it wont turn into mater from cars after all

Yah we shouldnt have to worry about rust but...even if you wash your car
the very next day it looks like that picture i posted lol. Pretty terrible. :bonk:
Looks especially bad on a raven car haha

Yeah I hear you.. had a black integra and was not fun trying to keep it clean looking plus you can see all the scratches easy.. thats why I got a white one this time..

I couldnt wait for the whiteout!!! lol i told me dealer preferably whiteout but
if not raven. You can see the outcome of that :thumbup:

here's mine. also a second pic of just the tire. has this happened to anybody else? pretty nuts.

I've been keeping the salt off so far, but these are from this summer pretty shortly after I got the car.. nice n dirty >:)

My tires used to get them lines from the oem wheels too, and wow thats a dusty ride haha

I did a burnout at the dealership after and the dust was everywhere from those back rims haha

HAHA nice :w00t:

This was taken at the rents house on Christmas Day - outside of Dallas believe it or not.

Some storm photos from today

After washing my car the day before... I woke up to find this :cry: I immediately gave her a bath and told her sorry that she couldn't fit in the safe garage.

^ is that from acid rain?

I honestly don't know what the hell it's from... It was just dirt though. We had a storm that night and a lot or cars looked like this the next day. Came right off though

nice :thumbsup:

A few pics of my muddy 86 and its muddy for me :D

I've hated not being able to drive my car since october, cause its tucked away in the garage. But this thread lets me see what I am missing out on, and I'm OK with that! Besides, I've got the old truck that gets around in the sloppy canada winter just fine.

twas raining in the mountains :D
