polished my header

[Domi31]

I bought a header for my 95 integra. It was for a DA, but it was a brand name, Greddy for 100 bucks. Drove around with it only prob is that it look like shit. So took it off and decided to sand it down, first time I did some thing like that so it came out decent.
Ha now I can probley sell it for 125 bucks and turn a profit lol

Here is the before, shitty brown (cant see the greddy stamp)

and after

Here is another before and after, tried to lay it in same postion

you should have gotten a metal polishing kit. you might have been able to clean it up even more. looks better though.

Thanks I might try that. I stoped at 1000 grit.

I havent re-installed my header yet, so might as well try it. but then again im lazy. Surprised i sat down and did this in the first place

Yeah, ideally get some metal polish and a drill buffer. I helped a kid polish some fat-5's the same way and a drill polisher makes things go 500x faster.

it's a header!
why go through the trouble?
might as well get it chromed if you want the shiny look.

it will get dirty fast.
