Dear Readers,


Reviving the Old and dull Exhaust and Muffler Tip of Proton Perdana V6
I have been thinking to change exhaust and the muffler tip previously before this idea pop into my head. Why not I save some money for other things which is more practical than wasting the $$ on the exhaust which will cost at least > RM 250 for it.


This idea pops into my head and I started of doing this. Kindly refer below for more details.

BEFORE






As you see from the pictures shown above, this is the dirty, dull and old exhaust since 2001 and has not been touch nor polish. Looks really ugly and makes you feel like getting a new ones right. Fred not, You just need to put in more effort to revive the glossy and original look to it.​

START OF THE WORK

Tested on the right side and I guess you can see the difference right?



Perform for both exhaust tips​



After getting the Exhaust tips done, I grind off the dirt, dust, tar and other unknown objects which sticks to the exhaust by using the Grinding brush ( or maybe there's a more professional name to call it?) It's getting there, need more effort.​





Partially done​




Let's work harder to get back the shine of the exhaust

After getting the muffler tips cleaned and shine whereby also getting the exhaust to restore it's newly purchase look, I started off with the grinding on the exhaust tip.​


Notice the difference of the before and after from the picture you see above.​

FINISH AND THE RESULT

BEFORE



AFTER

I'm happy that I have just save some $$ on it by getting it restore and shine. Now it looks better than a one year car which you seen out there. Finishes it with Autosol to get back its shine and apply a layer of wax for a glossy look​

will make it easier if u remove the muffler tip, hold by 1 or 2 screws then use autosol & rub it.
for the muffler can use those old baby bottle brush to clean inside.

Hey, i found the cheapest polish and wax in Shah Alam in a very decent shop. This is so far the first auto-detailing shop i found in Shah Alam. The shop name is POSH CAR CARE and located opposite UITM.

Price for 3-steps polish and wax is RM68 only. Membership is only RM148 with free 3-steps polish and wax. Another best thing is car wash and vacuum is only RM7 (sedan). These promotions will end by 15 July 2008. You can make your booking with Edwin (016-3229153).

Better hurry! 15 days...
