I was able to easily make the tip of the muffler look shiny by scrubbing off a little of the crud, but is there anyway to do that to the rest of the muffler body? I can't afford a new exhaust system yet, but I thik if I polish up the one I have now, it'd give the car a little "younger" look. Was the muffler ever shiny? There is a chip in the layers of crud that is bright and shiny, but I don't know if it's just a little bit of anb illusion.
Is a scotch pad and some soapy water the best way?

 

I don't think the muffler that came on 3rd gens were shiny, they all were black but the tips were shiny.

 

Darn, ok. So there's no easy way to make them shiny? :S

 

I notice that my muffler is also chipping and it's silver underneath. Kinda scared to strip it all off if it was
ment to be black.

 

hey try waxin the whole thing, thats what i do when mine starts to get dirty.
