i would need you to disassemble the alternator and you can send it apo when it is done i will give you a call paypal the funds or send a check m.o and i will send it back to ya....the reason you need to disassemble it is because i take all the casting flaws off the metal to give it that billet look those aluminum shavings dont need to be in the alternator when you get it back i figure 40 for that figure they are 50 plus shipping to and from in the states let me know bro

Dude, you can do better than that!! What kind of polishing compound do you have? At the local Praktiker, they have the blue and brown bars, along with the polishing wheels to go along with them.. That MAF looks really smooth, so I know you can bring WAY more luster out of it.. Keep practicing, you're doing well!

Do you know where Opel circle is? It is right at the bottom of the Ktown West exit. If you get off like you're going to Toys R' Us or ROB, it is right there.. As soon as you walk in, there's a drill section on the right. it's all right there..
