        i just wiped it off dirty areas with a dry rag... really it wasnt dirty at all except for where the u-joints had sprayed grease all over, and brake-kleen took care of that. I could count the number of times my car has seen rain on one hand (since i bought it). Ive also found that rustoleum actually applies better over a slightly dirty surface than a clean one.

              heck 99 percent of people dont even see SFCs so how would it make it sleeperish to paint them black? lol my vote is red, your car loses its sleeper status when you open up the cutout so thats besides the point. and I just think all black on the bottom is too boring and plain, red would look nice

                Looks good so far. I'd recommend painting the subframe connectors red. Coating the underside of my car is on my to do list now. I'm still waiting for it to get a bit warmer so I can finish my to do list before spring. I'll probably end up taking a week off work to get around to it.

                  I say keep the SFC Black.... I'm so tired of people trying to make things on there car look "flashy" by using red when they don't need to be. i.e STOCK BRAKE CALIPERS!

                      I would do body color on the SFC's...it helps them disappear. Heres how mine turned out in body color.

                          Because they are body colored and blend in... A sleeper looks stock and slow....all that goes out the window when you fire it up.
