I am toying around with the idea of getting a Borla cat-back and y-pipe for my Z28 and polishing the whole thing to a mirror shine. Does anyone have any experience with this type of thing? Can you recommend tools needed and polishing compounds?

 

I just use a cotton buffing wheel. Then use the white compond, then if you want more shine use purple. All this can be had at Home Depot for about $10. That is 1 wheel and one tube each.
My question is unless this is for a trailer queen or show car, why?

My question is, why not? fwiw, the undercarriage of my car is kept cleaner than most of the cars you see on the road. It is not a trailor queen or a show car, though it is a fair weather car only and I do spend a lot of time detailing it. For me it's a pride in ownership thing. Re: polishing the borla, I have used aircraft aluminum polish (I can't think of the name?) and then followed it up w/ wenol (blue tube).
