I bought that car about '98.. that was my 93GXE. it was steam cleaned at the dealer, and I just never let the engine bay get dirty after that. monthly power-washing and an occaisional "engine cleaner" spray was all it took to keep it that way.
The pics I took there were right before a show or something where I'd sprayed all the hoses with silicone and made everything purdy. other than that, it was just a regular 30 second cleaning that kept it all looking that clean.

Many people will find it cheaper to pay someone else to do it than to do it themselves.
(i.e. if you earn anything more than minimum wage, you can pay someone else to do it and make the money to pay them in less time than it would take you to do the job yourself.)
not to mention the fact that "beginners" always make a tiny mistake in the beginning that will leave scratches that still show up in the final polish. been there, done that. GRRR.

Sorry for the bad quality of the picture, my other digital camera broke. I'll get some better pics soon.
I've also started www.hipershine.com. I'm going to be doing this as a small business, website should be completed by this weekend and then business begins.

I haven't set a definite price yet, but that'll be worked out soon. The red badge was removed by nubiannupe before he sent it to me, so after i send it back to him he'll probably put it back on. You can just glue it back on, nothing hard.

Yeah, I'm reworking that badge into my whole engine color scheme, which should look pretty nice once I'm done! Oh, and Sudesh... I sent that "letter" off today (well, last night - but you get the gist...). Let me know when you get it.
