This car needs to be put back together.
I'm of the belief to never make a car so pretty that you never want to drive it. Put it back together, make 700hp, break some shit, fix and drive some more.View attachment 1778517View attachment 1778518Well, they aren’t perfect. They never will be. They are old. Previous owner ensured they got rusted. Pretty sure they ran these with the stickers on them still. They look good enough from 3 feet away. I’m going to do one more round of polish and call it a day. I didn’t get the tips stripped of the chrome. Eventually I’ll either have these fixed or just buy a new cat back.

You're so right! I bought my 2022 Genesis GV-70 with the intent to drive it daily, year round. That said, I've had it for a year and a half and it has 5,300 miles on it. It's pristine with a solid bumper to bumper ceramic coating, including trim, wheels and glass. The inside is super clean. Last winter, it stayed in the garage all winter. This winter, it's been out 3 or 4 times, when the streets were clean. What the heck!! LOL. Thank God my wife likes when I drive her '21 Acura. So I know full well how keeping a vehicle looking awesome can have a big affect on how much you drive it. Same thing happened with my 2003 Cobra.I'm of the belief to never make a car so pretty that you never want to drive it. Put it back together, make 700hp, break some shit, fix and drive some more.
I think they came out nice. More of a satin sheen vs. looking highly polished. Nice job!View attachment 1778517View attachment 1778518Well, they aren’t perfect. They never will be. They are old.

Since the install I am raising my agreed upon value of the car with the insurance company.You car is now $400 richer.
It's a great unit. What alternator did you have prior to this? Do you have a big wire upgrade?Installed a Nations Unit today. Checking pulley alignment with my dayco tool. Looks like my lower needs to move out 1mm to line up to the alternator and tensioner. Shimming that will be next on the list, then getting the correct length belts again.
My OEM external regulator conversion hit a road block. I’ll have to pick up that project again when I have more time. Not as easy as I thought it was going to be.

Been running rebuilt OEM’s. I’m running 1/0 wires for all battery wires because the battery is in the trunk. So yes I have big wire upgrade already.It's a great unit. What alternator did you have prior to this? Do you have a big wire upgrade?
