K5 Front Downpipe

Looking to replace the front downpipe on my bike with a better looking one (It has fallen victim to rust with previous owners!)

Needs to be a standard downpipe in good condition, money is waiting

Save your money and buy a tube of autosol.

What he's trying to say is that it isn't rust.

Downpipes are made of stainless steel, so will polish up no problem.

If really bad, then a bit of wire wool/emery cloth

So the money me and Nobby have saved you, that's at least 2 beers each

theres one in the for sale section, although what price it might be today is anyones guess

Might give that a shot, thanks to the two of you, you might get the beers one day

I was trying to remember the product that gets them clean without too much effort.

Opiglanz is what you want

Spray on, rinse off, polish with Autosol

I have some optiglanz never opened if you're interested. I never used it as I sprayed the downpipe black so I'd never have to clean it
