THe_DeTAiL3R Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 This is before, the tips looked BLACK. (11 years of baked on crap). I used some Carbrite "Wire Wheel Cleaner" (acid based stuff) and a wire brush. I was amazed how easily it got them this clean! Heres pics damn my car is dirty.... I just washed it on Thursday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 Hmm... I can't decide really, mainly because the car is dirty and it's a pretty close up shot of the ass end. Clean the car, get a farther away shot, and I bet it does look good. Now polish em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted March 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 I honestly just want them to go black again :oops: Don't care for the shiney exhaust tips look (yeah I'm weird I guess)... Maybe when the rest of the car is cleaned up and the x-lace are back on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadz34 Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Looks better nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runt Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Polish 'em. You won't regret it! I started with like 200 grit, 350, 500 or something like that...but I'm gonna start all over again this spring and get them real good. Believe me...it looks A LOT better than when they are all black 'n shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
