I just used plastic polish and cleaner from the local auto store on my Explorer and it worked great.
Boy the song on that site was annoying

They say "BEFORE" and "AFTER," but that's not the same car. Compare the scoop on the driver's side, and the "before" car has 4 plugs in the front bumper that aren't on the one in the "after" photograph.

duh.....YES they are the same car. If you know anything about mustangs then you'd know how easily they get modded. The "plugs" got replaced by vinyl stickers.....and the clear corners...the clear bulb got taken out and replaced with the orange bulb as to not attract the police.

Hate to disagree with ya but I'm with 1956MarkII. Why mod the car while trying to show before and after. Looks like a switch to me.

OMG, you guys are horrible. the "before" pic was taken in Jan of '03, it's the only front pic I have of my car as it doesn't take good pics from that angle. The "after" pic was taken last week.

Here's a pic from the same day as the "before" pic was taken, except by a guy with a better camera than I:

Same car - I'm with Casper, guys. I looked at the passenger side windshield sticker - same; Hood alignment- same.

Same:same

Yikes, I didn't mean for anyone to go off the deep end over this! When someone posts "before" and "after" pics, and states it took 1/2 hour to complete the process, I think it's fair to assume the pictures were taken IN THE SAME YEAR. If you open both pictures and click back and forth between them (and try to forget for a moment that it's YOUR car), I think you'll see why I thought they were pictures of 2 different Cobras. If I offended anyone, I apologize.

Yea, I put the orange bulbs back in so that I WON'T attract any Johnny Law-Dogs. The rims are '03 SVT Cobra rims that I had powdercoated white.
