Default New billet belt tensioner color available
Hello everyone,

We have added purple to our color lineup of billet belt tensioners. Quantities are limited, but if there is good response we will make more.

What about some black powdercoated valve covers?

On a more serious and less related to me and my plight note, how close is this color to the purple cars out there (GTO, T/A, Firebird, etc)? It looks pretty light in the pic, but I have a feeling that is from the flash.

You're right, the flash makes it seem light. We made this for a customer with a purple GTO. The color match was very good. Especially for anodizing which is hard to color match.

This cures the problem of throwing belts off. It looks pretty too.

It basically keeps you from ever having to worry about a belt tensioner going bad...they are a very nice piece, granted, for some people, it doesn't matter. For me, it was all about the looks, and the function was a nice bonus.
