Is that Polaris silver?

Nice rack btw

It's dirty Stirling Silver, with Por15 rust preventitive black patches (now painted over)

I hope it's a nice rack, but it's off the bay so I won't know until it lets me down.

Well, I wasn't going to put up a build thread, just highlight the bits of particular interest. But in case you want to see how it looks right now:

Looking good engine bay wise! What is it, saloon/touring/cabby?

It's a touring.

One more to prove it:

Nice bits

This is how my pipes were done on my E36 rack but I paid £50 to Pirtek to do it.

Only way to do it really.

Are you shagging the manager Ratch?

They made this one pipe for me a few years ago and the puter priced it as £90

No zinc plate either

Ha. I got the pair done by an aussie for cash in hand. I think he was into cars and just said leave it with me I'll sort it out for ya!

Lovely arent they

Well that's very pretty, but where's the rest of the car?

Seriously, it always makes me feel a bit inadequate when the polished spotless stuff comes out. My engine bay has had 20 years of liberally applied corrosion protection courtesy of an M20 oil atomiser.
