Beautiful but I'd be happy with less Shine.

Have those mufflers had any sort of finish applied to them question mark when

Remove exhaust. Send to FD Motorsports for sound surgery.
Also have ceramic coated in one of the several colored finishes. Done. Polish no more.

Take mag polish and medium steel wool together to them. Will give you a dulled mirror finish (can see reflections but barely) and clean up most marks.

Shoot me a pm with your email and I can send you a pic of what it looks like.
