Still interested in the name of the company who did it. I do chrome plating too and its hard to believe they have a ceramic that looks as good.

ceramic will looks like like polished aluminum if HAND POLISHED. and not just tumbled.

anyways I don't want to hijack this thread so please PM me the company info. Id like to talk to em about the coating they use. See if they sell it or just use it etc....

absolutely sick....I don't think my car was that clean underneath when I picked it up from the dealership

Keep posting the great pics.

One question though, what are the two blue rubber lines going to what looks like a box attached to the front of the tranny? Are you going to shield them from road debris with heat sleeving or some other type of line wrap for a bit more safety?

Blue lines look like oil drain lines to a scavenge tank. I am sure Tom will post up. Very nice looking setup. I am sure you will reach your goals and look good doing it!!

Thanks again guys....I've got a couple ounces of donated blood in this set-up.

Yep, blue lines go to the scavenge tank...pic doesn't show the clearance well, but they can't drag anything...actually tested that once with the shocks set too soft.

My 2007 goal is to beat 2006 with ac, etc working...

9.8 at 143mph for 2007 DOT legal on drag radials.
