No, after tidying up i've burried the buffer so i gave them to the metal polishers and i really just couldnt be arsed...lol
Tips. Dont do the inlet. The casing is utter sh*te and there is alot of hard to get to areas. Dizzy, get sanding. The casting isnt back but again there are hard to get to bits but they can be done with a bit of time.
Just had a quick read.
Didn't realise yoyu were sticking a tur-blow in!
Looking good matey.
might as well paint it then or chrome it?
Matrin: Kinda found one cheap ish, soi it would have been rude not too. Thank you very much, means alot from a man of your long serving legendaryness(might not be a word but who cares)
Sparkie, you have to polish metal before you chrome it, or it will just be a dull off gold is colour. Paint it is the best way.
Done a lil today..

Tidyed up too.
oo more shiney bits how many more?
Looking good Ben, admire the amount of time going into polishing bits. I've done a few things on mine and totally underestimated the time involved. I started doing my T40 inlet and after a good 20-30 hours I'm only halfway there (haven't touched it for a few months it made me that sick hehe).
Can't wait to have a good look round it later in the year at the shows. Keep it up :thumb:
