Were you at Carlisle-2005 ? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I was at the ZR-1 section at Carlisle on Saturday. There were quite a few ZR-1's with hoods up. One in particular had all the metal very nicely ploished [not chromed]. Anyway, I have tried all the rubbing, buffing, etc. with "Mothers" metal and "Mothers" billet polish. Not the same. I wish I had a more exact description of the car, but only remember the engine compartment = beautiful. Not real technical but if you were there..How did you do that????? Thanks. Its a shame that over the winter it comes to this.

Ralph,

Todd Cerami is selling his polished plenum and injector housings, etc. on ebay. Just search ebay and you should find it.

Thanks Will...I am guessing this is not something that can be done non-professional.

do you enjoy having a job and being able to drive your car?

Thanks Will and Kevin. I checked out e-bay. See what you mean about the $$$ to get the look. No wonder polish and elbow grease did not give me the same result. I could be rubbin for the next 5 winters.
