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)

and that is pretty much it wh. Al oxidizes at atmospheric. Gets dull because of the oxides. You will like it and hate it at the same time. Looks nice bro.
