My exhaust tips aren't awful, but they've seen better days. I want to polish them up, before deciding whether to stick with the chrome or get some black tips (am thinking about either OE black versions, or get them Cerakoted in a dark gunmetal colour).

I've polished a fair few tips with 00/0000 steel wool and Autosol, however these were all 'real' exhaust tips, with a bit of chrome on them. The tips on my vRS are purely cosmetic tips (although they are chromed metal rather than plastic or anything), however do we know if this polishing method still works?

I don't see why it wouldn't, but the tips aren't cheap and I don't want to take the chroming off.

I cleaned and polished mine but i used a tub of mothers metal polish ,same as solvo autosol basicly ,i didnt use steel wool i thought it may scratch them too much with them just being cosmetic ,came up like new tho 👍

Thank you. I'll start with a cloth and maybe a soft scrubbing pad thing and see what happens.
