Under the paint was a beautiful Aluminum finish so I put it on the buffing wheel, used some red rouge buffing compound and it came up looking like chrome. Now, 'ill get a few bottles of Testor's model paint and fill in the SSR logo in Silver and Red. Looks like a million bucks for only a few hours of work.

POLISHED ALUMINUM....we're talking about engine jewelry. That insert looks great.
