944 Turbo Ally arms......what

[wrenchnride247]

From the looks of my control arms and torsion end caps when I got them they didn't do anything to them. I degreased mine and used a wire wheel to shine them up some what, and sprayed them with clear coat.

I agree, Porsche did nothing to protect the alloy finish. I have also cleaned mine up and they look good. I reckon the best finish has got to be hard anodizing which should survive the hostile environment under the car. I think that I would rather occasionally wire wool the oxides off than trusting any paint finish or fork out for anodising. Besides the greasy handling they have had affords some protection.

The corrosion around some of the alloy fixings does raise a few questions as to the suitablilty of alloy in our salt infested environment.
