I know it's not much, but figured I would post this. Man, Bar Keeper's Friend really is some good stuff. My exhaust tips were in dire need of a cleaning and that stuff did just the trick!

Thanks for the compliments guys!

You're right J, I should have done those too. Only reason I didn't was because it was 90 degrees out and I already got a shower. I figured the tips wouldn't take much effort to clean up so I wouldn't be all sweaty afterwards.

Looks awesome Chip...great work on them tips!

have you thought of spraying the mufflers (and the exhaust) in high heat black silicone?

I like the look it gives the exhaust and to add to it, it saves the exhaust from the winter elements (the salt and the snow/ice hear really mess with the exhaust piping)

He better not.
Stainless is fine in the elements and what's the point in hiding that gorgeous exhaust? One of the things I miss most about not having an exhaust is all that bling from behind.
