Ok, so my car is lowered about 2" in the front. What should i be using to get the wheel wells nice and black? I cant use any sort of applicator in there, because the gap is about 3 fingers tall, so it would have to be a spray.

You can always pull the wheel off.

go with the Armor All aerosol as said above!!!! stuff rocks. and actually holds up pretty well.... buy a few cans of it because you'll use it up pretty quick...

I cant even get my hand let alone a brush into the wheel well, so I justd spray, let soak, and spray off and hope for the best!

i use dp cleanse all and an EZ brush,

soak everything down there with the dp cleanse all, then agitate with the ez brush (3 fingers is enough room). then hit it up w/ the armorall spray

If you really want to do a good job it's not that hard to pull the wheel off.

Jack the car up, or if you mange to put your hand in there, use a black ShMitt when washing.

AA after works great
