Isn't that reason good enough? 8) ;) I've seen them polished, someone who has done it will soon reply. And welcome to the DMF [thumbsup] Title: Re: header pipes Post by: mtn_mnztr on May 26, 2008, 04:43:17 AM I didn't exactly polish them. But I had them bead blasted (sand blasting would be better, you get a million tiny dings from the beads) to get whatever that brown coating is off, them worked them over with 3m paint stripping pads perpendicular to the line of the pipe. You get a brushed finish that looks just like the stainless pipes of your cans. Lot's of work, but worth it.
