Default DIY: Greddy Type Mase

Haha, this is a pointless thread, but for all of those who've never seen the private parts of BOV, heres your chance.

First you take an ordinary Greddy Type S bov shown below



Then take it apart like so:









Then its time for the Mase Transformation. I dont know about you guys, but I hate gay purple.

Greddy Type S + Sand Paper + More Sandpaper + Time + hurt hands = blingin' Greddy Type Mase




HOLY COW!!! too blingin' to get a picture of.....


j/k




There I hope you liked my dumb post...Cheers

I did that to my TurboXS type s a while back, but it has grooves that are really hard so sand out, so now it has purple stripes

I think you will have to sand it off. dont be dumb like me, i did it by hand, which took forever and a day, use a dremel, it sure sucked getting the corners and ****

Did you use a metal polish at all?

I polished my Vtec solenoid head using the following steps:

220 grit
400 grit
800 grit
1500 grit
2000 grit
Mothers Metal Polish applied with Dremal tool and polishing pad.

I have to say, the Mothers polish and Dremal tool made all the differnce....it took it from a nice shinny finish to a mirror like gleam...I couln't believe how shinny it was!!!! I also did it to my distributer and drivers side mount...I didn't spend enough time on those peices so they arent as shinny...
