How did I get it soo shiney??

Well it took a long whole day of work of sanding sanding sanding elbow grease polish more sanding polish 3 other friends help then pizza and beer afterward for the accomplishments. I pretty much sanded 90% of the canister not just that front face. I forgot what grit I started with but I think it was like 500, 800, 1000, 2000, lots of 2000.

Wow. I'm pretty impressed. I thought that exhaust was aftermarket myself. It is crazy how u got the mufflers so shiny. Looks good.

Thanks.... A whole lot of work pays off, especially the sweat for that perfection it can happen, all my friends first thought I had bought an aftermarket exhaust

I like the look, I think black would also give a pretty sweet look as well. I think I might do this to my 430, just to give it a little pop.
