Exhaust trims polished

FRG · 06-15-2013, 10:34 AM

Had these polished up this morning at a stainless exhaust specialist just around the corner from me. Happy with the result as I've never liked the 'satin' chrome finish on mine, good job really as I can't go back to it now.

The car is in for painting on the 25th so the bumper should be the right colour this time. I'll be sure to get some pics up when it's done.

They might be black after 10 miles but they won't be satin chrome anymore when they're clean, they'll be nice and shiny as they are now (I hope)

This wasn't the palce on the County estate near the Alpha Romeo specialist was it? everytime i leave our office i'm tempted to go get a quote for a 335i style exhaust

Yes mate, opposite the Alfa place. If I wanted an aftermarket stainless exhaust I'd go see him, probably just to see the Ferrari 250 GT that is in there, it's by no means complete but it's still stunning.

Looks good. Been thinking of changing my tips, maybe just get them polished

Looks good mate. Seal them with some FK1000P and they'll be a lot easier to clean
