Hey guys, im 17. Finally got my car, thanks to my parents
Before you think im spoiled or anything im not, i pay for my insurance and gas and i believe that i earned the car
Its stock right now besides a DC header that my step dad had put on(i ono why).
Plans are:
-SiR bumpers(waiting to put on)
-SiR lip
-Lower it with Ground Control coilovers and Koni Yellows(hopefully after summer). Change of plans, went with h&r sport and saving up for koni yellows or tokico illuminas over summer
-Cheap wheels, either BMW bottle caps,LS meshes, HX, or Spun meshes
-DIY black housing headlights
-Spoon rep. side mirrors
-Black door moldings, either JDM thin moldings or attempt to make these "ABS Black"
-Repaint sideskirts "ABS Black"
-Get rid of nasty waterspots(any tips?)
No swap or turbo for me right now or much engine mods, gotta listen to the parents
. Hoping to go turbo in 2008

Waxed her up yesterday and got rid of the water spots, well most of them on the paint. Still a problem on the windows though.
Oh yeah, did my first "mod". Type R shift boot and did that little red crayon trick with my OEM konb.

Use some window cleaner and some really fine steel wool to clean your windows. It should get the water spots out with out a problem. If you get the steel wool from Home Depot, look for the 00 or 000 fine steel wool. It works wonders. Thats how I clean my windshield all the time but it should take care of your problem.
