Exhaust Tips

I've read posts about polishing up the standard exhaust tips. Since the tips are just held on with 17mm bolts, I figured I try it before I ordered OEM stainless ones. Well, I just saved myself about $300. I used Flitz metal polish and the finest steel wool I could buy. They polished up to near mirror finish, almost as good as the factory ones. The whole project takes about an hour.

They're back on. The whole process including removal and install takes about an hour.

Kevin,

I took the last set of pics with my digital cameral set at a much lower resolution (600x480) and there was no problem posting. There was a problem when I was shooting 1600x1200. Thanks for your help.

Eric
