Polished my stock Exhaust tips!

So i was just about to start looking for the dual exhaust tips for the gp and a buddy of mine told me he knew someone that polished his tips and it looked great. So i went and got some 320, 600, 1000 grit sandpaper and then polished it all off with hoosier aluminum polish (same stuff i use on my semi). I wanna know what you all think. Was it overboard that you can see the muffler too? I was thinking of painting that flat black and leaving the tips shiny or should i just leave it as is?

Opinions welcome please

I think they look pretty nice actually. Like smoke14 said, paint the mufflers black. It'll make the tips pop more.

How do you keep them shiny without having to carry a scrub pad everywhere??

You swap them for some stainless steel tips. Keeping them clean will be a never ending process you can try to clear coat them but doubt that will help much without having to constantly scrub them again
 
I'm catless, so they turn yellow/brown/black quickly and the easy way to clean them is just with a can of brake cleaner and a rag.

Spray the rag and quick wipe down and they are clean. Of course they will dull overtime and quick sanding brings back the shine.
 


yeah, looks real good, seem to look like they hang a little low, but thats nbd

ps. pick up a smoked license plate frame for the rear :th_thumbsup-wink:
