Did you polish the lower tubes yourself?
I hear a lot of people use a drill. No idea with what on the drill? I have 3sets. 2 scuffed pretty bad, and 1 set that looks like they could achieve a nice finish. Any ideas?

By the way. Yours look amazing. Nice job! :beer

Where did you get the progressive springs? I got some for my 250r from rocky mountain but can't find anything for the Tecate.
