Default Sorry, More Polishing Pics, I will try to not be a pest, I AM JUST HAPPY, ATI Pics>>

I am just as happy as can be with my car, polishing away, a little each day. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

The last two pics are of the supercharger before it was polished. I painted it with chrome paint. I had to strip the paint off before I polished it.

Alternator next.

I even Polished the outside of the pulley leaving the center black... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Very nice but you forgot the most important part the fins better air flow. I wish I polished my D1-sc and not payed extra, Because I sill had to polish it more (not as shine as I like), and I don't like the polished tubes. <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

Again, thank you all for putting up with me. It has been very rewarding for me installing 99% of the mods on my SS in my garage.

This is another venture I am enjoying. <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

slow...Sanding is the key to a good shine. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Jsears8...3 k miles a year, 5900 on the clock.

PewterZ,SSG--Z28,...Thanks!

2FAST4U...I did think about polishing the fins and mouth but did not want to get anything on the inside that may damage the supercharger.

WEASEL...You crack me up, thanks. <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

PendragonZ...Go for it!

Tony...THANKS !

Xsta Z 28...If you could see my garage, I could never tile it with the buffing going on in there. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Electron blue, now that an idea...j/k.
