Thanks for the compliments guys!

total PITA and i havent even done the IC. You have to make sure everything is clean, dry and fingerprint free. Then you have to spray it and bake it. These last few pipes were too big for my oven so I used an infrared system which is quick but still a pain. The amount of mess in my garage right now is just crazy.

They say once you go black....
My wheels are gunmetal so they should match nicely!
Wasnt looking for too blingy of a color. I just wanted something different from stock so if you know what youre looking at you know its custom.

You shoulda snapped a pic!

 

I'm a glutton for punishment! Looks like I just gave myself a new project this fall while I prepare for my Twin Turbo install.

I may as well do something to dress up the pipes as I gather supporting mods

 

finished up my ic:

progress pic:

you can see where the powder is flowing out and the unaffected darker powder that has not flowed out. the total cure time for this piece was about 1hour and 45 minutes!

 

That looks clean. You're setup is going to look badass!

 

^thanks!

Install is this weekend....will get some pics of all the pipes.

 

You make me want to grab my FMIC in my livingroom and do this next week when I get back from my mini vaca!!

It looks GOOD

 

you could take another mini vacay while it cures!

 

Im diging it

 

looks good man, can't wait to see it all put togeather

 

sooooooooooooooo i redid them

 

Dayum that looks horrible....
Lol jk sweet!! can't wait to see it in person

 

christmas colors...would like to see it in person, cant really get a feel for the color combo. Piping looks cool though.

 

Looks good. It's different fer sure.

 

Very chistmas! hopefully shell run by then, be painted and tuned. Also red and green are complimentary. Ever see a redhead wear green shirts? They know it helps them out.

The parts look black/dark from afar. Only at a certain distance and with the right light will the green be very noticeable.

 

hmmm... not sure how I feel about the greenish color on a red engine bay but as long as you like it, thats all that matters

 

were you pulling the front timing cover with the motor in teh car?

 

Haven't yet but will.

 

Looks great... now send over those intake pipes so I can duplicate them!!!..
I'm digging the green color..

 

Me next

 

^i can link you to the two colors i used. I would suggest a different black though. The mirror black is very translucent. I have some dark gloss black that would have worked better and given more consistent results.

had i known my car was going to sit for 6 months I could have but hopefully this weekend i get her all back together to fire her up. My intake pipes are modified a bit to fit kn filters.
