Although I would like to say "what's the point" I won't. I will say that that looks pretty good actually and I'd like to see it installed!!

Absolutely NO point other than to make it look better. The entire a/c system is out of my blue Evo until tomorrow so I figured what the hell.

I polished it on a twin wheel high speed buffer in the shop. You just have to be careful with the small lines as they kink easy if you catch them on the wheel, but overall, not too difficult with the correct tools.

You need to clean it with solvent, sand with 1000 to get off any corrosion, etc.....then polish with two stages of polish on the high speed buffing wheel. This was a used system I bought for my Blue evo and it looked like it! Now it looks better than brand new. It should go back on the car today and get the entire car put back together on Monday/Tues so I'll snap more pics.

You have to pull them all out and really get those connection areas.

I plan on pulling it out all together... for good.


I was bored and decided to do em a while ago. I never use my AC, no matter how hot it is.

So, off it goes.


Way OT, I love your Supra.
