Good idea guys. Ive been watching youtube videos on how to re-finish brushed stainless steal using 120 grit oxide paper and red scotch write pad so ill give it a bash next week. Happy to save £150 per corner. The parts guy stated full piece only. You can't buy the stainless insert separately.

Any ideas where to buy a dremel and tools at a good price?

I would use a machine polisher if you don't have one find a wee body shop and ask them to give it a try with G3

Thanks for that mate. Yeah got a DA polisher with loads of pads and different compounds. Will take a few photos when I manage to get time to refinish the area.

Cheers
