I am guessing that you polished your throttle body? Looks good. What happened to the RS?

I'd say it looks nice, but you're from Canada, those guys are jerks. They make fun of me on that regional board.

Canadian? No, no.......he's from k-bec

Just kidding Mat, I hope to run into you some time in Ottawa. Carm's told me about your RS and it sounds pretty sweet.

Oh, and Shields.......please confine your post whoring to the boards that are NOT the Ontario board

Looks really nice. One question for you though. How do you sand in the grooves and what do you use to shine it up with?

Thx guys, I just used the ol sandpaper , 180, 400, 600, 1000wet.

I also took the Mother's alum. polish.

The edges were hard to do but my trottle body was in good shape so ... not too much work.

Acceld Z, you know Carm !?, what did he said about me ? just curious ! ...
