m11xky Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 What did you use to polish the FMIC dude?Just a combination of G6 rubbing compound, metal polish and a scourer.....just takes a load of rubbing and patience. But be real careful you don't bend any fins!!!Heres a half done pic:Top half was bad but the bottom was worse!Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
