I had my car undercoated about 2 weeks ago. less than 5 days before our actual permanent snowfall began. i have on all season tires with a good amount of tread on them. i have my block heater plugged in when i'm at work but not at home (my parents say it's a waste of electricity and tell me to just warm-up the car earlier). i also have a mini heater that keeps the interior warm when i have the block heater plugged in too. i wash the car including the underbody and wheel wells every 5 days or so.
but what else can i do to keep the celica well maintained for the snowy and slippery streets? any suggestions? here are some pics of the undercoat: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by azian_advanced: Nov 4, 2007 - 12:39 AM -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

I've been considering doing some winterizing for my Celica too....Like maybe coating the wheel wells with stuff like you used that will prevent corrosion, and picking up a set of stock mudflaps somehow. Since mine is a daily driver including winter driving, I want to try and protect it as best as possible.....I even thought about maybe stopping by a friends shop that does automotive vinyl and maybe have him make me a protective vinyl covering for lower half of the body or something, just to keep the snow and salt off of it.
