Well, after doing some 1/4 miles the other weekend and getting caught in a little rain this last weekend - Saturday night, had no plans, and decided that the Viper needed a serious clean...
I have no "prior" pics - but I must have peeled off 5lbs of rubber stuck in the wheel wells and under the sills, etc...

Didn't be a picture of the before and after of the front fascia - but was on the creeper and managed to get all the way under the front fascia - must have had bugs under there since last year...
In any event, now my beast is back to a respectable shine...
