Polished stainless steel looks like the finish on a stainless muffler, sort of a chrome look. Brushed stainless (which is the finish on the genuine kick plates) has a finish that is relatively dull, kinda like the finish on the front of silver stereo equipment. :lol:

kickplates look better in brushed aluminium look... more rugged i guess... but if you prefer to have that 'bling-bling' effect then the polished look is the way to go.

Hehe 'bling bling', Thanks guys. Yeh, my friend said the same, he said that brushed would probably be the way to go coz polished gets to scratched and smudged.

Hehe 'bling bling' :lol:
