Bill,
I wanted to use the same clamping system that held the plastic tank, which is the Arize. I liked that the plastic tank was rubber mounted. The new tank came with clamps that would work, but not rubber mounted. They even offered chrome clamps. I was concerned with the long term effects of vibration if not rubber mounted.
Chappell,
My fingers are still raw from the sanding. I had never done a polish from raw aluminum before so I wanted to try it. If I had it to do again---I would because my self satisfaction is much higher from doing it myself rather than just buying it. Hard & tedious work but very satisfying.
Thanks to all for your positive comments! It really adds to the DD chrome package.
