Borla stainless mufflers-Polishing to mirror finish I have noticed a lot of Borla mufflers are T-304 stainless steel, look good in the advertising pics but in normal photo's the quality looks cheap, do these mufflers polish up to a mirror finish like T-304 should?
Anyone got a pic of 1 after a quick hand polish?

I am getting a polished 304 system and these mufflers are 304 grade stainless as well, but all the pics they look dull, its going on a showcar hence why I want the lot looking the same. Underneath of the car is almost better then what you see on the car, got a bit carried away underneath detailing. Looks good I spose when your servicing the car.
