Arrow Bling!!! Polished Valve Covers & Maf Ends- Great Price!!!

Here are some factory parts that have been polished to perfection. I sell these on an exchange basis.

I will need your stock parts in addition to the price listed or you can pay the core charge. $80 core on the valve covers, $40 core on the maf ends.

Maf ends... Polished on the outside, Chrome like appearance. $60/exchange.



Maf pics a couple nights ago when I finished 'em...




Valve covers... $125/exchange. Valve covers are horrible castings from GM (lots of air pockets/irregular grain) and are very hard to polish this nice. Chrome like appearance.






Pm, post, or call my cell phone ~Joshua 678/492/6843

Just buy them outright and pay the core charge. Done.

To the top. ~Joshua

Hey man, you won't believe it. I just got the twin kit installed and tuned perfectly. The car was absolutely insane (crazy fast) Only got 200 miles on it and one of the turbos siezed up. Now I've gotta take all the crap back out of the car to get it rebuilt.

Welcome to the world of forced induction.

Josh,

Shoot me a PM on pricing for some polishing "touch up" work. I have a Hotchkis STB that is already polished and looks good, but want it brightened up some. Also have a polished MTI TB, same thing, brightened up, and my MAF ends, already polished, but brightened up some.

Probably want to have the STB eventually chromed.


Thanks
Bryan

Been waiting on pics of a polished tensioner - but I guess it will look as great as all the other items!

What is pricing on a tensioner if I don't send you my core? Kinda need it right now and don't want to wait till winter.

parbreak- Pm sent.

Havok2- I appreciate the kind words, let me know if you have questions.

YouCantCmyZ28- I should have pictures of the single exhaust tips in next couple days. You're gonna love 'em!

1QUIKWS6- I have a tensioner that will be done in a couple days tops. If you pay me $60 + $45 core it's yours. I will refund your core charge if you send me your dull one afterwards.

Sabre002- you want bigger pics of them installed huh? Here's ya go. (I don't have those ugly headers anymore)

Valve covers pictured are sold, but I can polish up a million more.

I still have the maf ends in the ad for sale.

Porting the inside of a maf housing is a no-no.

I'm a pro... the best actually when it comes polishing aluminum or stainless. I could write a book on the topic, way too much to list. You're looking at years of experience.

If you want results like this, just buy my parts, it's the best bargain you'll ever find considering the quality. ~Joshua

Would you be willing to accept a ported MAF? It still has the screen in it though. Did you descreen yours?

I can't re-sell it if it's been opened up inside. Mine don't have the screens eigther, but when you open up the diameter of the metal bore it completely throws off the calibration of the stock sensor.

I can accept maf cores only if the centers aren't ported. Any customer that bought a polished maf would have my head on a platter if it turned out to be internally ported. ~Joshua

You can always just pay the core charge and buy a diamond from me outright...
