quote] After trying to clean the Grill after dis-assembly, as you can see in the first picture......the cleaner I used ate thru the Annodizing and it still didn't get all of the dis-coloration off the grill..... I sent the upper and lower Grill sections out and had them......Stripped......Bright Dipped......and Re-Annodized......just got them back and re-applied the flat Black paint per factory......they turned out pretty good.....check out the pic's Before ![]() After ![]() ![]() ![]() Ken [/ QUOTE ]

If anyone is still interested in Aluminum anodizing. This is who did all the aluminum on my 66 SS. His work is phenominal.

Bill, I used Anobrite for re-anodizing) on a recommendation from Haislip and I was very happy with the results. Price was reasonable too.
