Remove exhaust tips?
Did a search but didnt find anything. Is it possible to remove the exhaust tips so I can make em shine again?? Or do I have to clean em on the car?
Thanks.

you can take off the exhuasts of course -- you can not take off the tips only - unless you cut them off the car and reweld them later --

Just lower the two mufflers by removing or unbolting the hinges.

I've been using steel wool for a while now at the suggestion of another board member. It's fast, easy, removes ALL carbon, and it costs about $2 for a box of 10 pads. The tips get dirty so fast and the carbon is so hard to clean(at least on a DD that gets driven 300-500 miles a week) that I see no reason to spend more than 5 minutes cleaning the tips every other week or so.

Steel wool is way too aggressive. Instead, try a Scotchbrite pad. Worked wonders on my tips. I use P21S Multi-Finish Surface Restorer to polish them up and it seems to work better than any metal polish I've tried.
