Used?..... what do you mean? The exhaust was brand new when i bought it... the red stuck out like a sore thumb.... it looks way better all aluminum.

thanks for the good words!
sro, i didn't use simi on the frame.. its bot even buffed out, actually.. i will when i start re-assembly tho.. who knows if somethings gonna happen and scratch it up when i put the motor and all back in.. just my luck i'll have to resand.. i'll be uber careful to avoid this tho..
drag, i heard that if you clear a polished part, it takes away from the luster, so, nope.. didn't clear it. i was considering it tho, but i'm also observing the cardinal rule of polishing: Never polish anything you can't reach to clean regularly!
EMS, the cap looks baller. definitely matches now! anodizing's kinda hard to remove, even tho its only .001" thick! (a 1/3 as thick as a sheet of paper)
