    Just tried this method and it does clean them up pretty nicely. Cheap also. The pads cost $2.49 and the glass cleaner cost .97 ;] ;D

    sorry no pics. Try it for yourself :dancing6:

    i've never had to get really hardcore on my tips. I just get under the car and take a cloth and rub as hard as i can on the pipes to get the burnt rubber and dirt off then i just use some alum/mag cleaner on them, makes them shiny as hell.

    I go all the way back to right above the axle cause that's where the s/s ends and you can see them thru the wheels
