Polishing or chrome?? I'm wondering if anyone has polished any parts under there hood with a dremel. If this can be done, I will try it, but if not, I will probably just send some to be chromed. Anyone?

Re: Polishing or chrome?? I haven't done it to mine, but I have seen other's cars where they've polished all the underhood aluminum.
It can be done. It's (I hear) easy. It weighs less and retains less heat than chrome plating would...
good luck!

I wouldn't EVEN THINK of buffing something with a dremel. Might as well hand polish it.
If you have a bench grinder, get an arbor and wheels for it. If not, a mini-grinder hooked to a sompressor will work. You don't have any of those, don't bother.
