Keeping the exhaust pipes clean?

Just wondering...any of you guys have any suggestions on keeping those BEAUTIFUL exhaust pipes clean on the coupes? I noticed mine might be starting to build up a little grime on it, but anyone have any suggestions on stuff to keep it looking shiny?

Usually soap and water does the trick, but if you want to get extra jiggy, use a polish or chrome cleaner. Keep in mind though, that area gets very hot. Use something non flammable.

Haha, that's funny. I don't think there's much danger of our chrome exhaust tips bursting into flame.

Feel free to polish away to your heart's content. Klasse AIO will probably work just fine. Oh, and just in case, neither the word "flammable" nor "inflammable" appears on the bottle (they both mean the same thing). However, make sure you don't swallow any of it while polishing your car - it could kill you that way.

LOL.....but if you swallow it, still make sure it's non flammable.

The reason I put that was because there are some polishes out there that are flammable and do nasty stuff in high heat areas. But choose anything car related and you should be fine.

Cool...I have to say, these things are such an awesome feature of the rear of this car, it's almost painful to see them grimy from the rainy/nasty weather we've been getting recently!

Mother's always does the trick. It'll get rust and the black smoke out.
