Yeah yours looks good... I may try some rouge again today. We have several different types, brown, green some that looks black and then the white that is actually laying on the bench in the picture. It does come out pretty nice but like you said it's a pita to say the least. I guess trying to take a 40 year old part and make it look new is gonna take some more elbow action.

I thought about maybe trying some of the cloth wadding polish that ibiz has for aluminum. I know it works great on clean aluminum.

Gonna grind a few rivitz this morning See if I can get the rear ECE stuff installed. Might wait until I have some "qualified" help before I tackle the front later this week.
