Something for cleaning inside the wheel wells?
Anyone know something that you can inside of the wheel wells to clean them and make them blacker, without painting?
Having that dirt-ish color in there with stock springs makes the gap not look so good...
Maybe something that works like tire foam...

Instant Wheel Cleaner by Meguiars. Spray the **** on, scrub quickly with a wheel brush or any kind of hard bristle brush, rinse and repeat. Be careful not to let the stuff run onto the face of the wheel for too long or else it will streak. Figure on doing a full rinse within 1-2 minutes.

orange greased lightning - shop strength degreaser at full strength, being careful not to get it on the axles and brakes or wheels, rinse throughly, I would take the rim and tire off, wrap the axle and brake up with some plastic and spray and rinse, may need some brush scrubbing.

Using most wheel cleaners will ruin any aluminum on the car.
When cleaning the wheel well (for a GOOD job) jack the car up and take the wheel off. Buy some Spray Nine as it wont "etch" the aluminum A-arms. Spray and scrub with a brush till your hearts content! Rinse and she'll be sparkling. If your well is in real ruff shape you may have to spray paint it black in there to make it look new again

Although I've never taken it out of the driveway yet, if I lowered it I'd *probably* bottom out every time I left my house :P (untill I fill in or cover the gutter)
In fact I'm sure not sure if it'll make it out safely as it is now... (going forwards at least)
and I'd NEVER make it safely out of the bank's driveway since even my mom's van bottoms out half the time on their heinous exit...
