I saw that post with the black S4 so I figured I would give it a shot and polish the stock intercoolers. Here's a few pics. Mesh rs4 style grills are going in pretty soon so I'm not going to leave them open to rocks very long.

Default I used a dremel and some gs27 paint polishing compound since I don't have real tools or.........
