I love that ..."Is that stock???" "look".

Keeps people guessing, it could be stock equipment :D The black hides stuff better too. Easier to hide any oils, and a light coat of black will help to more evenly dissipate heat too.

WOW, that is clean. Is that all from scrubbing, or did you do some repainting as well? It looks new. 8)

50% Spray Nine & Water in a garden sprayer, Light scrubbing with a soft brush rinse with hot water spray (yes I have hot & cold water & a drain in the garage). I did some light sanding on the lower shock brackets & the springs, taped up the brake lines, shocks, exhaust & driveshaft then sprayed Krylon semi-flat black then untaped the steel brake lines & numbers on the springs & sprayed Painters Touch clear over everything. took about 3 hrs total...including the front suspension.

WOW, You can come over to my house and pick the mud out of my frame.

Last time I cleaned the mud out from under my car we swept it up and weighed it..... it came out to 60 lbs of mud in a trash bag 8)

Super job! And hot and cold water in garage is an enthusiast's heaven. If someone here had seen you spend 3 hrs doing that that would also claim strange odors coming from your home and a large volume of traffic coming and going all hrs of the day and nite. But, seriously it looks great!
