Question about polishing plenum

There was a guy who had a website about polishing and porting the TPI plenum. He gave instructions on how to do it but he also said if you sent him yours and $50 he'd send you one that was already done. Anybody know who he is or what his address is? I can't remember it for the life of me.

I dont know who you are reffering to but here are my parts done by someone on the boards here. (Very nice I must say) I am very pleased with his work. His screen name is 85SportCoupetoRS I believe. Contact him if you would like, he is very reasonable with his prices too!

Wow, those look awesome, how much does he charge, I already did 3 of my wheels, but they don't look that nice.

Holy S that's sweet! Didi you swap or send him your parts. I'd hate to have to wait for the parts while the weather is getting nice. Not too into taking a t-top car off the road after just putting it back on after 6 months.

I sent him my parts a week or so ago and they looked like crap with all the grime and grease and what not on everything. But as you can see he cleaned them up real nice and made them look even NICER!

Oh sorry Ions, the runners were "dented" by my FORMER mechanic and that is how I got to know 85sportcoupetoRS. He took out the dents and polished them and even let me tell my mechanic that the total price was what it was because he 'had' to polish it. It was total but the mechanic believed it! They were already done late last summer. So now I gotta have everything match!! :hail:
