Looks great! could you PM me what steps you took and what materials you used?
Wow that looks really good! You keep raising the bar man!:bowdown:
Me too.
you can do better.....i can't remember who had pics but they got em to a mirror finish using various grit sand paper
^ I think you are talking about 04sleeper. His pipes are amazing. To the OP, Looks Good! That's about how mine turned out with about the same effort/time put into them.
^^you're right
yeah I know the guy you are talking about. I am happy with what I got. If you look at the pics with how I bought it and how it is now. "no need for explanations"
This is what I've used:
Started off with 800 grit sand paper. Took off all of the road grime and big stuff
than went onto a steel wool to get all of the rust out and scratches
than metal cleaner and chrome polishes
and a lot of elbow grease

thanks dude! yours look great too and i give you props for doing it while there on the car. No way i would do that. Mine took 3 hours each and the backache i had the next day was not worth it...well yeah maybe it was lol.
You should start you a tailpipe cleaning service.....:thumbsup:
I know what you mean, mine took 2 hours and I can't feel my arms. I just wanted them to look clean and that's what I got. I think you should make "how to's" thread on cleaning the pipes.
Can you do this to stock pipes?
you sure can.. I did the same thing to my old GT and it looked the same
Awesome thanks! Time to make my stock IRS Cobra pipes look purty. :banana:
that looks outstanding, amazing how the little details like that make a remarkable difference
...not to hijack the thread... but where did you find those ramps? I need some for my cobra too

Thanks man! I got them ramps at Auto Zone for like $30 and use them every week. I bought these like 4 years ago and they still sell them for the same price, I actually seen them today at store close to my home.
Very Nice! :rockon:
I think I have seen some pipes like that somehwere. :smmon:
