it still takes maintenance and up-keep and if not cleaned properly will turn out looking just like what he has, but will be a different color. I agree with you 100% it makes a night and day difference, but either way you gotta maintain your machine.

yeah if you dont mind spending a lil time after every ride to clean it then they will look like sh*t. if you do keep em clean and polished then they look like chrome!

Take some denatured alchol, and some kind of wire brush, and an air compressor with air gun. Once you use a lil elbow grease like the other guy said. Spray you motor down with W-40. That way, once you get it muddy again, when you go to spray it off with a water hose, it'll come right off. Then re-spray. A friend show me that. It works too.
