Sophie already has a DIY write up somewhere. i just followed that.
i just used tons of sand paper, elbow grease then mothers polish. i started with a 80grit then went all the way up til 1500grit. im happy with how it came out. its not shop perfect but it'll do.

Looks great man. This takes so much time and effort. I got all of my parts down to a brushed aluminum look and then said F-it and left them at that :bigSmile: +rep

thanks Al. as you know, its alot of work. the turbo was actually easier than i thought. i did it the lazy man way. i left it in the car and just went to work on it with the paper.

i think the intake mani and the y pipe took the longest. maybe 3 days right there. but once you have down to brushed it only takes a little more from there. i think the key is to start with a really rough grit. i like starting with a 80grit then go up in steps from there
