I will wash the car when this three month cold snap is over... So, maybe in May?

The rear of my car is also dirty as hell, but otherwise it is quite clean so I had't bother to wash it. Also they're not using salt that much in these temperatures as it does not work when it is colder than -5 celsius.

I have not noticed salt, however, when we were in Sweden two weeks ago, the use of Urea was insane. It can be -10°C, and there is water running on the motor way! I used 3 liters of washer fluid for a 180km drive!

Brushless car wash this week if it gets "warmer" than -8°C.

Wow so that's what real weather/seasons looks like. There is no way I could live in those conditions. Last time I went to the local mountains and had to shovel a driveway and I pretty much had it. But then again, snowboarding is all worth it

You've still got your front splitter on the car 
Do you have your own personal snow plough to drive in front of you throughout the winter period? 
ps. I have to give you 10/10 for "design of dirt" -- its quite a nice design the way its sprayed up from the wheels and its the same on both sides, but I wouldn't expect anything less from such an experienced modder
