We can polish the OEM ones as an option if buying a CNC spiral ported one....I'll try to find a picture.

Take it off and polish it yourself. Sand, Sand, Sand then use a good polish and buff buff buff. Google "how to polish aluminum" and you will find step by step grit to use. I did it a few years ago to the frame of my GSXR and it turned out awesome, just time consuming, but well worth it.

Agreed. Anyone can do this, it just takes alot of time & elbow grease. Start with lik a 400 grit and end with 1500 then go to buffing/polishing. Will look awesome when finished.
