Just got the 916 pipes back from the polishers and WOW:o:o - they are stunning! Bear in mind that they came off a 10 year old bike and were covered in crud they have come back looking like they've been chrome plated, they're gorgeous :D
A big up to: http://www.4motorbikes.com/index.asp
If you are in the Hants/Sussex/Surrey area (or further afield as they do a postal service) they're well worth a call.
Can you put up some pics mate? Ive got some bits and bobs for my 749 that I want doing!
How much did they charge for the pipes?

Whats that then? You don't need that grease stuff to push a mouse around and tap on the keyboard all day ... but you don't see that mouse giving me any jip anymore!!

To poncy, the finnish on the original pipes looks best, you should have had them "brushed".
