Clean your M Performance Exhaust Tips!

Guys, it's so easy to remove the tips, all you need to do is slightly loosen the hex bolt under the tip. Get those tips polished and looking nice! World of a difference in person! Definitely a small detail that goes overlooked.

I know the pictures aren't great. However in person there is quite the difference.

I have always liked to drive the car for a while where the exhaust gets nice and hot and then just spray some throttle body cleaner on it and then just wipe it with a microfiber. Works great for the 30 seconds it takes. At least for the inside of the tips

Hey buddy, I used metal polish with a microfiber rag then a drill attachment to polish. The polish was "Flitz Metal Polish", good stuff…

I spray the inside of the exhaust with Griots Engine Cleaner, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub with a soft bottle brush and rise with water. Get's the caked on stuff off. It doesn't polish it to a bright metal anymore, but it's better than looking like bukkake!
