Got a good question for everyone here - Is there any way/any product that will let me shine up/polish the exhaust manifold on my Vibe GT? It's in decent shape, but I was wondering if, when I'm under the hood cleaning everything else up, there was a product or method that might throw some shine back at the exhaust manifold?Any help is always appreciated!

Some time ago, our resident detail expert Whalen, posted a thorough explanation of detailing under the hood, including product recommendations. You should do a search for it.

Yep, I'm having one of those "not-so-smart" days. I meant the intake.

Best thing to do if its looking scuffed or marred is to sand it down or take a bristle brush wheel on a drill and clean it up, then paint it with some high heat paint. You can get it in multiple colors from your auto store.
