Last night I painted the A/C bracket and today I installed it to see how it looked. Lesson learned, bring you glasses when you need to read a paint can. I picked up two cans of paint. One aluminum and the other metalic satin Nickle. Ah I'll get the aluminum so it will blend in instead of black. Get home spray the bracket, hmm looks pretty good. 3 coats, read the can Nickle ??? But it looks good so maybe somebody was watching over me and helped with the color choice.

Wayne, Sometimes things actually work out and I feel your pain as I have learned how to use the "Zoom" feature on my iPhone camera so I can read the small print on things.

and I think it looks great.

I shipped my headers to Jet Hot for their 2500 degree coating, I'm doing them in Titanium color. The coating is supposed to be a little rougher than the Ceramicoat but I'll live with it. They got there a week ago last Wednesday so they should be getting close to being done. I can't wait for the E Mail with the tracking number. :ups: This is how my wife looks at me when UPS shows up.

That's what I'll eventually put on the turbo kit.

They use jethot 2500 extreme exclusively at my turbo fabricator.

Wayne, definitely post pictures when they come back, I get the same way when the brown truck shows up ... must be a car guy thing! lol

My headers are done and got shipped to the house today. Unfortunately no one home to sign for them. My wife was at work and I'm in Virginia! My grandson got sick and my daughter and her husband needed help , so I flew in last Sunday and stayed the week. He's better now and going back to school Monday so I'm headed home Sunday morning and will get them from UPS warehouse. I can't wait to see them.

My daughter said there was a cars & coffee around here (Suffolk Va.) Anyone know where it is ?
