Ceejay29 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Decided to tackle the stainless steel exhaust tips this morning….or lack of them. I don’t think they have ever been cleaned before! I find Scoripion’s slash-cut style tailpipe aesthetically disappointing (although it sounds nice), they do not protrude out from the bumper much, consequently they hard to depict. So I spent around an hour on them, using a wet cloth, steel wool and Autosol metal polish….both bought from ebay, totaling under £5. The wire wool and polish cut through the contamination really well, the inner face of the pipes were harder, but it has made a huge difference. A few before and after: I also decided to address a slight yellow haze towards the top of both headlights. I read online that using regular toothpaste helps to remove oxidisation, so I gave it a go. Simply added a small amount to a dry cloth and rubbed in, thoroughly rinsing the area afterwards. A few before and after: Next step is to wash the car!

ChrisS Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Bumper tuck next and polishing the box ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceejay29 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 Just had a look at a bumper tuck, new to me, and potentially something else to add to the ever-growing list......damn this forum!! I think I would go for one if I had a different exhaust system, I am not sure if it would look right with the back box exposed. I am definitely sold by tez162003 gunmetal post though.....wow!
