Polishing up tail pipes on the 111R

Post by greedyboythomson » Mon Jun 26, 2006 12:05 am

Been compiling my shopping list of car valet products for the car's arrival on Thursday, was planning on getting hold of some Autoglym metal polish for the exhaust pipes which are black with carbon deposits. Anyone tried this?

Nothing like a set of thoroughly polished pipes!

Autoglym stuff works well...not that I'd admit to using it. :)
