Hey guys.



Just polished up the tips on the beast. Sharing some shots.



What do you guys use to polish Stainless Steel?

Cool. What did you use? My tips were polished originally, so I just use some Meguiar`s All Metal Polish (the pro stuff, not the GC stuff). It works well and is very shiny.

Yeah man, looks sweet! What did you use on that thing? I would love my magnaflow muffler and tip to come out that way. My tip looks just like yours. Stock exhaust?

Hey Guys,



These aren`t the Stock M5 Exhaust. This is a Tubi from Tubistyle.



It is actually a Quad system. So I have two on each side, total 4.



I should have taken a shot further back to show all four.



They were sought of shiny. But had a lot of grinding marks in them. To I sanded them perfectly smooth, and went through the grits to fine, and then repolished them.



I tend them with "Purple" Metal polish.:bigups

Did you use emory cloths? Or fine-grit paint sandpaper? Did you do it by hand? Thanks for the info!

I used a proper metal polishing hand sander. It looks like an angle grinder.



I used the course and medium and buffing wheels, with the Grey clay bar or polish that came with it. Then finished off by hand with the purple metal polish.

I use Eagle One (click here) (http://www.eagleone.com/_products/0,1030605.asp) for exhaust tips and heavy duty chrome bumpers on 1980`s American cars (like my old Buick Electra!)



This stuff is cheap and works wonders on exhaust tips. Never fails; even the worst cases.

Thanks AMP01,



I just recently visited L.A. A friend of mine took me on the ride of my Life through some canyons near Malibu, in an ACS DFC equipped M5.



I have now since ordered that electroniclly controlled suspension. It should be here in around 3 weeks.



I stayed with friends on the water at Malibu. Nice place.

A unique "jeweler`s rouge" formula removes rust and grime to produce a maximum shine on all metal surfaces. Eagle One Mag & Aluminum Polish utilizes mild polishing agents to remove oxidation, rust and surface grime. Do NOT use on delicate show chrome surfaces; it will scratch. :eek:



Sounds a bit course.
