very clean.

Think I might take mine off and take a look. I assume they were all body coloured from the factory. Might even leave them off if it looks good.

im turning bufty, more and more each day!!

then again i shudnt be so suprised its mint under their its only done 29660 miles!!

if it was rusty id be thinking it had been clocked!

its always a nerve racking time when you look under places like this, you never no what your going to find, no-matter how mint your motor is

pics as promised, remember i havent cleaned this at all....yet!! lol

small amount of underseal in this one!! whats the point a tiny amount like this is hardly going to do anythink



goey gunk sprayed EVERYWHERE, its like the black stuff except doesnt come off as easy as im going to re-seal it.



heres the big mother arch liners, not looking forward to putting the new ones in, but will look nice with the new bolts ect ect
