Very nice matey, but where's the engine bay pic's :laugh:

I usually spend 4-6 hours just cleaning the engine bay on my motors :blink:

If you want to get into the tight areas i find a soft toothbrush pretty good :thumbup1:

I'm guessing from your numberplate (thread title, not pics) that I need to have a word with you about stealing my initials!!

Car looks nice, I'd never seen a red IS200 before I went to the Ace Cafe meet and they look surprisingly tidy. I don't normally like red cars Smile

Today i fitted a K&N filter, direct replacement, all little things.

Hard to tell if it drives any smoother, def has a little more grunt to it, just running down the petrol now to the red light before filling up with V-Power to see if it runs better Big Grin

Im guessing when you sprayed it with APC you didnt jet wash or anything off but all by hand ?
