Looks like something I'd like.

No silver coating?


EDIT: Damn I missed that last pic... You're all set now, aren't you?

I was a little disappointed about that too..... I was wanting the silver being that I got to ALOT of car shows Im assuming that its all done in the 2000* black, so its a trade off, I guess, but it sure does come off really easy

If it makes you feel better, I was trying a rig with publix bags to clean the motor but cover the pipes, using some degreaser... Let's just say bags were flying, bags didn't stay in place, and I fucked up the silver finish in alot of areas... It stained INSTANTLY, I almost started crying!

Hey, it is not drawn in paint! Ha, just messing with you Carl.

Looks good, don't worry about the black. I would be worried the silver would discolor over time.

The girl is cute too

The *** kits keeps ALL the acc. They get alot of flack from folks, but the funny thing, is other manufactures come and go, and *** is still here. Also they probably have the best layed out kit, that keeps everything and goes above the K-member, which is nice for lowered vehicles.

I'm lowered and have ALL accessories. I don't know how many LS1 turbo users can say that. But, let's be careful.
