Red underhood dress up on a black WS6?

What do you guys use to polish the aluminum, throttle body etc..

I used Mother's billet and a fine cloth wheel on my drill. Flitz would work great and I'm going to get some. I used that on my titanium engine panels on my F-111 and a mesh kit. Wow. That shit works great.

Another vote for Mothers Billet, great polish.

Expensive as hell but, worth it if you need to do a good job in a hurry. I used the alloy wheel cleaner first but, then saw the billet and there is a huge difference between those.

I think you would like Flitz, Y2K.

Here is mine when stuff was red --- it bothered me (previous owner stuff)

And here it is now:

**pajeff02** · 04-19-2009, 05:56 PM

That is a big improvement!

**JoshieDoom** · 04-19-2009, 05:57 PM

**pajeff02** · 04-19-2009, 05:58 PM

That works too!

**Hi-Po** · 04-19-2009, 05:59 PM

That does look nice.

**JoshieDoom** · 04-19-2009, 06:05 PM

Caps are going back to chrome.

**BIG GUNS** · 04-19-2009, 07:18 PM

OMG!! they all look nice. You guys did some awesome work. Great.

**Hi-Po** · 04-20-2009, 07:55 PM

Alright, so Should I go with the red catch can or the silver/aluminum? I need to get my pipe ordered from shithead DMH tonight as well, so I also need this to be order. Whatcha guys think?

**TA98** · 04-21-2009, 07:24 AM

Dont do to much red. Its easily overpowering. A friend of mine put polished red valve covers on his 5.0 and it looks so bad. Theyre just to bright.

**Hi-Po** · 04-21-2009, 12:06 PM

What about just Red fuel rail covers, Red Catch can, The red Optima? The rest I will try and piece together with stailness steel and chrome.

**ntimid8r7** · 04-21-2009, 12:11 PM

red in moderation is a good thing especially on a black car. we just got done with third_shift/studio's ws6 and it turned out really good. we did his intake in mirror black, valve covers in mirror red and his fuel rail in mirror silver.
