    Awesome stuff :thumb3:

    My wife asked me if I could polish the exhaust tips on her exhaust the other day and today I decided to do it. I used Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish.

    This is the stuff right here:

    The right exhaust tip I did before taking pics to show the difference. The right exhaust tip did look like the left one...

    Works great! Took me about 30 min to do both. That carbon and grim was caked on there.

    Thanks and your welcome! They look so much better polished!

    Never used the Turtle Wax chrome, I'll have to give it a try one day.

    I went a bit nuts and also went ahead the polished the intake and the injector cover. All I can say is WOW, I can see my face clearly in it lol.

    Lol, yes it is. I'm going to see what else I can polish on the car tomorrow after work haha.

    Thanks! Yeah they get dirty quick. Its best to do them every other car wash I would say. We bought her MPX 3" Turbo-back exhaust used, put it on last Thursday. It looks like the tips were never polished/kept up with. If you keep up with it, it shouldn't take as long as it took me.
