Ive got it mate..looks about as dirty as mine at the mo.lol.
Just not worth cleaning it coz of the salt.
The only thing good about the winter is the colder air but then that just makes my tyres light up even quicker.bummer.HAHA

for those that dont know what snow foam is:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIppGipTkoQ

"The foamster will cover your vehicle in a thick layer of foam encapsulating and softening the dirt and grime. Because the foam clings much better to vertical surfaces it can be left to dwell for longer without drying which really allows the emulsifiers and surfactants to work much better than traditional wash methods. This means that when it is rinsed off much more of the potentially paint damaging dirt is removed. A further layer of foam can then be laid onto the vehicle and washed using a soft washmitt for the safest wash possible"

you can buy the proper foam lance http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/Store/Product/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=425
but i couldnt justify spending £40 odd quid on the foam master so il just bought this. does the job!
http://www.superspray.co.uk/

just attachs to the end of the hose pipe and basically u just fill the bottle with "snow foam" (a 5l bottle is about a tenner)

used in conjunction with a woolen mitt, its so much easier to wash the car!

Sympathy's for you on your stains.

I was conceived in the front passenger seat of a Ford Capri.

The stains in the Capri were for life. 32 years on and my dad still wishes he was a virgin.

MG Rover build quality springs to mind.

You want to have a look at my hatch rear bumper! It looks too wide for the car :rofl:

I shouldn't worry about it too much......if it is bugging you.....should be a simple job a bodyshop can do.......might even be a DIY thing if you can be bothered I guess? I personally wouldn't worry though lol

Mine is the same. I don't want to force it and break it, so I will just leave it as it is.
