I always wondered what I could use to fix em... they are just flowmaster tips I doubt they are stainless. would that still work?

Im planning on gettin a Stainless Magnaflow cat back since the flowmaster was put on by the above noted prev owner

Thanks for the comments guys

Looks good but i've been reading the NXT will take off other waxes though i'm not sure about the ICE since it is not carnauba, but a synthetic polish.

Did you notice a difference in appearance after the final wax?
