I finally got off my ass and turned in my Valve cover, home made UIC pipe, and new tb elbow to get powder coated. 65 bux for everything, not too bad i thought. It's gunna be in a color called Silver Vein. pretty cool looking i think. It's like a black and silver mixture. The colors are seperated kinda like if you put like liquid metal and black oil together, cuz oil doesn't mix, just kinda stays seperate and swirls around. I think it will look pretty cool. I also was just told that Sheppards valve cover is done the same color, oh well. I thought it was gunna be original, guess not. Anyway, I'll post up some pics of what it all looks like once i get it all back.

There is a girl local here as well that has a GST with a VC in that design.

it'll all be done tomorrow, ill try to get someones camera and take a pic of em. I hope they look good!!!

well i just got it all back today and i put it all in. I'm real happy with how everything turned out. Once I get my hands on a digital camera, ill post up a pic or 2

here's a couple pics

another

thats cool but arent those the same pic?

yes they were, but i changed that. my bad

those are the crappy version pictures, i had to shrink em and make em less clear to meat the 48kb ceiling. I have the 1MB versions that show so much more detail if anyone really wants, i can send em thru aim.

Very cool! But definately not unique ;) I have decided not much in the car world is unique....

ya i just had never seen one done like that, and thought it might be unique. I still think its semi-unique. Not nearly as common as RED, or BLUE or some just plain color. Also what u guys think of my homemade UIC pipe? I'm happy with how that turned out too!

Looks pretty sweet but something that would really look better would be to Polish the lettering :bounce:

I for one like it with no complaints. :thumbsup:

i agree, but I am a shitty polisher so im gunna just leave it as is

Cool, they look nice. Looks like you did a good job on the ic pipe. How much did it cost to get everything powdercoated and where did you do it?

it cost me like a whole 25 bux to make the IC pipe, cost me 20 for the tb elbow, the valve cover i forgot how much i bought it for but i got it from someone on here i think. And then it cost 65 bux to get all 3 powder coated at a shop here called Off Road Buggy. It was my first time ever going there, and I was suprised when I walked in the back and seen a 1000hp twin turbo cadillac northstar engine in a dang sandrail, and all these 500hp range nissan twin turbo and subaru 2.5 engines laying around. Anyway I took a couple more pics while i was bored cuz the sun was real bright when i took those first ones.

again

last one

i like the that looks, i thought it kinnda looked like styrofoam in the first couple of pics. But the ones with less light aer pretty sweet lookin. And is "here"any where in minnesota, cuz i been thinkin bout gettin that done.

I'm in Arizona man, sorry. But there's gotta be somewhere there that does powder coating if this crap hole i live in has 2 powder coating places
