Out of respect for the owner I'll keep it private but definitely a pretty penny.

I just spent an hour going through this and your other threads. I loved the GT-R and E46 M3 work up. You do beautiful work!

I have a quick question.

For the exhaust, all you did was spray degreaser, wipe it down, then use a 0000 steel wool pad and a metal polish for the shine? Just want to make sure. This will be my first time doing the exhaust and I'm kind of scared using a steel wool pad. I'll get over it just as I did when I did my first wet sanding when I was removing oxidation from my headlights.

Again, great write up! Hope to see more in the future.

It was spray CG Grime Reaper and rub with steel wool then rinse. No wipe down as you want the exhaust to be wet with grime reaper. Afterwards once the exhaust is clean then you metal polish to bring back the shine.
