Is it possible to polish the strut bar? Its not nearly as rough as the parts that you were polishing so I guess you can skip the lower grain sandpaper....correct? Has anyone poslished the timing chain cover. I know its a big peice but I think it would really look good. Has anyone clearcoated their parts yet? Does it crack that easily, I have sprayed clear before and I think it would be pretty easy to do this.
