Hi,

I bought a V2 SQ-Trim and was wondering... Is this metal surface hard to hand polish? I'd use a drill w/ polishing tools.



One more question.. Do you think it'll void my warranty?

Thanks,
Yan

Shouldn't be too hard, the top of my blower is polished from rubbing against the (now non existent) hood liner. Just make sure you don't get anything in the blower, take your time, etc. I'm not sure if it would void the warranty - to be sure I would contact Vortech directly by phone (they NEVER reply to e-mails).

anything that's alluminum is polishable, just take your time and id recomend doing it by hand. Make sure you cover up all the open ports

I was thinking about doing the same thing. All my piping is polished, but the unit isn't lol.

If you do it, let me know what tools you use. And post final pictures of course

I plan on going pretty regularly during week nights and not to often on weekends. To crowded.

If this white crap would stop comming down we could actually think about going to the track .

Congrats on your blower purchase .
