Washing my car today, debated drying with quick detailer but figured 33 was too cold for it. How cold is too cold For that kinda product to apply effectively?

What is everyone getting their car for christmas?

I'm going with full supplies for a claybar, iron remover, polish, ceramic coating, and dr color chip.

Kinda thinking about some headlights too.

Most self serve places that have attendants might tell you to leave if you do half that.

Were you ever eating fettuccini while driving? Or a passenger maybe?

Could have been the edge of the filter?

I found the same thing hanging from the driver’s side when I was repinning wires for the LED tails.

???

It’s almost like a huge spent rubber band.

It is a spent rubber band. VW used these on some (maybe all) of our cars around some wire bundles. I found mine still hanging in the dash after I pulled the glove box to run some wires. I don't know if they were supposed to be a temporary hold that should have been removed, but I couldn't find any wires that weren't fully secure anywhere near where the rubber band was. Throw it into the trash and don't think twice about it.
