A couple of of before and after pics of a bolt, and an OEM original shim. Hard, if not impossible to get these shims exactly the same as originals despite what many vendor say, so it's nice to be able to bring them back to original condition.

Both these pieces (the shim is not the same shim, just from the same pile of identically rusted shims), were not sand blasted or cleaned. Just soaked a while in Muriatic acid, rinsed in alcohol, and re-plated in zinc.
