Hi all,
I have here two exhausts as per title - originally I bought the Cobra but before I had fitted it I saw this Prodrive which I wanted.
I was going to sell the Cobra but wanted to clean it as it was a bit manky, in the end I cleaned both up.
I have just spent 4 hours at work using their compressed air and a three stage stainless polish/buffing kit.
I carried out the folowing on each exhaust:
1. Prepared with a course Sisal 2 section buff pad & coarse polishing compound.
2. Hard buff pad & intermediate polishing compound
3. Soft buff and finishing polish compound
Both are infinitely better now, the large majority of damage caused by polishes like Autosol or cleaning using wire wool has been fixed.
Now, my problem is that since they are both properly nice looking, I can't decide on which to use on my car!
I don't want overly loud, just a little louder than my OE STi box I have at the minute.
Both exhausts have 2.5" pipework with 3" exits, both are rolled tipped and look similar.
My question to everyone is - which would you choose?
