I'm dying to polish again, I need to pass the time... I'll do valve covers, well anything aluminum... I am good at it... I have a few out there

Kris Brickman and Smoosh have one...



Or I will even buy extra valve covers off of you, turn around time is about 1 week to 2 weeks

Heh, when smoosh puts on his polished cover, he's giving me his old one. When i get it, If your still looking to do 'um then I'll send it out to you.

What do you want to do it?

PHIL !!!

What do you think you would charge for a side cover or 2 of an old jap motorcycle??

Not very big, usually fairly smooth, no deep ruts or crevices... Generall speaking- maybe 7-8" tall by 12-15" wide..

Figure it out sucka !!!

Well...

I actually already polished most of the covers on my bike.. Just got lazy and left it at half decently shiny... I prob will just finish those myself.

My brother just picked up an old 75 kz400, his are pretty much raw aluminum, all crapola looking !!

Here us what they look like..


I'll have to see if hes interested...

I'm pretty sure there was an ad on craigslist with a title like this....though that had nothing at all to do with car parts...odd.

LOL

But how about a price for an eco fuel rail? I just have to tap new line fittings (hopefully this week or next), then id like it polished.
