Hi all,

There's a rather large back-box on my 320 cab. I haven't had it very long, and it's quite hard to keep the damn thing clean because of all the soot coming off the exhaust. Is this a normal situation, or is there something wrong with the exhaust airflow? See photos below for an example of how it looks a week after cleaning...

I just made the images smaller. Didn't realise they were so huge first time around. Anybody any ideas? I'm not sure it's technical help I need, but this isn't really a styling or detailing question either, so here will have to do.
