How do you clean it?  Surface is really oxidized on my Bullitt intake, and would like to clean it up some for the show on Sunday, just have no experience with aluminum.  Huh

Thanks!

Went at it with a toothbrush and some aluminum cleaner-its not shiny, but its a heck of a lot cleaner than it was!  I can't imagine ever having anything chrome under my hood, it would kill me to clean it-the plastic and aluminum was more than enough!  Just wish I could have found my "back to black" bottle.  Guess I'll have to hit Napa tomorrow.

Thanks guys!
