DO EET!!!!
That is all.

Those seats look amazing now! It all looks amazing! Great job! Can't wait to see it once it's all done, headlights and all.

Looks real good!

Are the tires the right size? They don't seem to fill the wheel well very well. Almost look too short.

They are the correct size tires, and they are brand new. Must be the black on black illusion.

It's probably the lighter colored inner fender looking bigger than it is.

What do you use for cleaning the leather seats? Mine looks like crap.

I know he uses a magic eraser and some water, but then I'd use some lexol cleaner and conditioner. Couple applications of that will make your seats feel like new.

I've always used 303 Aerospace as leather conditioner...I have expensive taste I guess...but it does work nicely...Ask Lucas how smooth the leather on my seats are...I found a way to make him slide in the seat at 30mph...he didn't like slaloming much

303 is good, but it doesn't have the oils and stuff Lexol does that soak into the grain of the skin and restore softness, and it doesn't have a cleaner. 303 will maintain nice leather, Lexol will restore slightly worn leather.

I have a separate Meguiars cleaner I use when necessary...but have you seen my seats? LOL they only ever need conditioning...but for any other car I use the Meguiars Cleaner and 303...or Meguiars Conditioner sometimes too...

Well with only 50k I'd hope your seats are in nice shape...

Ahem! I'm almost at 58k...Thank you very much!

Leather in most cars (including Bonnevilles) is coated and what you use on it, doesn't really have an effect on it. Much more to do with physical wear (friction/poking) heat, humidity, and UV damage.

I do use some lexol on there. 303 is great for trim and interiors because it's a UV resistant setup. I used to use it on tires all the time..

You can slap me on the wrist, but for these I tried something different....but don't hold me responsible if you wreck your seats.

Castrol Super Clean

As long as you don't spray it directly on the leather, it takes off the dirty WAY faster than a magic eraser. Just finish with a standard leather conditioner.

And I thought some of MY ideas were weird...but that's just crazy enough to work....I don't know that I'll be using that one though...

Headlight pics finally

Looks fantastic as always! This one turned out extra clean.

Today I replaced the SWPS and the LF wheel bearing. Took care of the ABS/Trac lights on the dash. I believe this one is ready to go!

Interesting bit about this car. When I had pulled the seats out, I found this bracelet. I showed it to Shannon and was planning on throwing it away, but she told me she thought it was real. I checked it over again, and found a 10k stamped on it. I brought it to a couple jewelry stores and town, and was able to get $200 cash for it!

Nice!!!
