Well got a little bug in me and decided to take the exhaust off and polish it up while the weather was crappy. Went from bare SS to mirror like finish using 400, 800, 1000, 1500 and 2000 grit sandpapers then Mothers polish. Finished up late Saturday night.
What do you think?

Looks great, I wish I had time to keep my stuff that clean and shiny.

Thanks everyone!

It took about 7 hours for everything. I wet sanded it, pretty much did it all by hand. Tried a Mothers polish ball, but it was awkward with the exhaust off the car.

Took the tires off to make it easier uninstalling and installing the pipes. Plus Im looking for bigger tires d/r's this spring for my new 18" chrome cobras.

Wouldn't that be sick. That would be one hell of a project.
