I think I might get mine coated in brake dust grey... Damn 172's with their tiny little gaps
Now if only I'd got thinner fingers

I know exactly what you mean! But when they are clean, they look so nice!! That is until you go for a ride... LOL I'd use a california duster but we get rain here all the time so they streak and make a big mess......i just hate it!
