Is there anyone with a polished fuel rail on a 420a. If you are who makes it and are you satisfied?
thanks jason

You could polish it yourself with a dremel easily. Just make sure it's off the car and all the fuel has been evaporated from inside first.

Don't bother with polishing the stock fuel rail. Its painted brazed steel. It won't be too purdy when your done. There are 2+ aluminum fuel rails for us out there. I just don't know the companies.

I polished mine with a dremel and it turned out okay. An aftermarket fuelrail would look better though and save you alot of time. I'm not sure where they sell a fully polished one. If you find one let me know.

i hate to go against the almighty CORBIN but i polished mine by hand actually (you must go around the tube in a circular manner, not across) and it looks just as good as anything you can buy. looks exactly like chrome and took me like half a day with sandpaper and finished it out with 2000 wet grit. i ended up painting the brackets silver/alum since my underhood theme is (working on it) polished, matte, and grey. i have some pics but my camera simply does not do them justice. i need to take it to our studio and get a lighting setup on it. i never really was pleased with dremel polishing, and i dunno what it looks like on the rail, but by hand with a little time it is truly nothing short of bad ass after you get finished. ill try and get some pics up. at current its 5 hours away at my parents house along with the eclipse.

EDIT: screw it, here are a few pics, but they are nowhere near good enough. it looks a little yellowish because of our lights and i didnt take the time to color correct it. enjoy!

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself...

where the hell is the ceiling?

Apparently the OBX fuel rails suck.

Edit: But the thing I couldn't figure out is, if the OBX rails came with a bigger bore or not?

hey, where do these fuel rails install? are they hard to get to?

Well, I stand corrected. I guess with enough time and determination, you can polish anything. It looks excellent. I suppose that the factory nickel-plates the rail or something to help with brazing the parts together. I never would have thought that the ugly-ass stock rail could look so good.

I think Dino said he could get some rails for pretty cheap. I'm not gonna look for the post, but you could ask him where or ask him to get one for you.
