Hi there mechanic and welcome to the site, agree with lightspeed real nice headlamp conversion looks good. As far as headers go arn't they SS painted black, could be wrong (anyone ) but can't you just strip the paint off and polish the originals. I'm in Faringdon Oxfordshire by the way, may see you on the road sometime.

Welcome.
You can strip the paint off and polish the headers as they are SS underneath the paint. I would imagine it's a bit fiddly around the collector box area tho'

Pukka pipes are going to cost £00's.!

Welcome, as has been said your down pipe's are ss anyway and can be stripped and polished, but its bloody hard work and not worth it IMHO, try using stovex or similar on the downpipes as this will bring them up really nice or buy a aftermarket stainless system. BTW love the polished rims and bewolf exhaust.

Down pipes are mild steel on the 1100 so don't strip & polish because you'll be very busy!
