GazzaGSi Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 So thought id tart the engine bay up abit. So far I have given the exhaust heat shield a new lease of life! looks a thousand times better than what it did originally. Now its time for the next part, although I dont know what this is yet.... What you lot think? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 looks good, was that with elbow grease ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzaGSi Posted January 25, 2006 Author Share Posted January 25, 2006 lol that mag was in the sunday paper elbow grease? yes and no - the works buffing wheel came in handy first of all, then polished it up myself with the stuff I use on the polished lip of the wheels. Cheers, just gotta get the damn thing back on now - removed it with out taking the big air pipe off, it just managed to slide down. Reckon I'll remove it when refitting this as I dont want to scuff my hard work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Make sure you get a good heat resistant polsih on it as once its refitted it rusts very quickly, trust me i know from experience What do you do for a living ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of getting a high temp resistance laquer or something and givving it a spray, what do you think? Work on engine build/strip at Rolls Royce. yeh i believe ya! top shelf material that!

colsoop Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I think that would work, it would lose a bit of its shine but it would be protected as once refitted there are a few bits you just cant reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
