Post your dirty photos

Sorry to see this and I hope your wife is ok..
Thanks.

Shes 100% fine, no airbags deployed. I am going to take advantage of the $12,500 rental car coverage in our policy. Last time I got a Maserati for 6wks lol.
 
Does brake dust and tire browning count? Haven't washed her in a couple weeks. The dirtier she gets, the harder I drive, so I tend to put it off if I can...

Hate that crap. It'll scratch your paint in a heart beat. I remember the streets running green from pollen during the rain when we used to live in the Delaware Valley. I don't miss it.

Damn how soft is our paint if it can be scratched by... pollen?

I hate pollen because of my allergies. Some days I just want to Agent Orange the whole northeast.
 
It hasn't rained here outside Philly for about 2-1/2 weeks, and the pollen is out of control.

I wish it would rain soon, my grass is turning brown. Feels like its been 4 or 5 weeks (or longer) over my way.

I hosed off my beater a few days ago just to get some pollen off. Left a nice streak of yellow down my driveway.

dirt and rain while on a roadtrip.

Here's the dirtiest BW I've seen so far.

Not sure if these count… dirty on the way to being clean. But I'm posting them, anyway.

I included them in my New Member Intro post. She's brand new, and getting her first bath after being driven from the dealership in Houston to home in Grapevine (outskirts of Fort Worth).

We're already crazy about her.

I've had far worse on mine, but you got to get that crap off asap. I'm amazed sometimes how fast bug guts seep into the paint.

It's all filmed but I am going to wash tomorrow. Made an unexpected back and forth to Aspen this week. I'll post separate on that. The CT5-V Blackwing is just an amazing machine.
 
Still haven't washed it...

Something about bug guts?
Wrapped, but first wash left a lot of "smearing" behind.

It's a bit hard to tell how filthy the wheels were too, but they shouldn't be that dark ;)
The brake dust at least changes the color consistently!

When I had my bumper off I realized there are radiators back, bottom, and to the sides and they all had bugs in them. Not an excessive amount because I haven't driven much, and very little at night in the summer so far. I can see them getting filled up pretty good with bugs.:cautious:
 
Not sure if they show up, but covered in bugs from driving to PA

The brake dust that collects on low-pressure surfaces after an extensive spirited drive is pretty remarkable. This was after basically back-to-back tanks of gas hammer down on very remote twisty roads. The dust on the edge of the tail lights was a first for sure.
