Thanks.

That maroon hood and bumper get around - they originally came from the junkyard for my orange HHR after a deer hit. Now they move along to Oldblue, along with one of my original orange fenders.

The name should probably be changed from Oldblue to Oldblue-orange-maroon.

Add a couple more colors and you could go for the tie dye look.

Of course, my daughter would probably refuse to drive it if it looked like that.

This morning I walked over to my local AZ and picked up some Mother's Aluminum Polish and proceeded to dehaze my brake lights.
Took about 2 minutes each ( it took more time to tape them off than to polish)and now they look good as new.
Thanks for the suggestion.
THEN, I followed that up with a vent valve replacement.
What fun.
To work on a vehicle knowing that others have ventured out and recorded what to do.
Sure makes repairs easier.

Today I machine polished the aluminium rims, a red foam 3 inch pad on my drill with Mother’s Power polish. They are like a mirror! My OCD has to be kept in check, I still see scratches!
