How to....

[Sonic Nonsense]

Clean the brushed aluminium rear splitter. Mine seems to get all this kinda white stuff on it - water marks I guess, but I can't seem to get it all off. Regular polish gets the worst of it off, as does Autosol metal polish, but if you polish it too hard, it loses the brushed finish and goes shiny (luckily tested that in a non-obvious area).

Any ideas?

How about having it and the wheels powder coated in black?

The white stuff is corrosion. Not a hell of a lot you can do about it, I'm afraid.

Buy a carbon fibre diffuser, if it bothers you.

Darn. Looks like i'll be saving my pocket money then.

Thanks anyway!

Use Autoglym metal polish - works a treat!

As does Autosol, but if you polish hard enough to get rid of the corrosion, you will find that the aluminium starts to take a shine, which Sonic has said he doesn't like.

You would have to polish BL00DY hard to do that. Carefully polish once a month and it will say nice.
