But again your work is awesome. On the exhaust I do a high temp powder in black first(bake it) then a black texture on the second coat then bake it a second time. It gives it different looking finish. I just do the headers in high temp black because after doing the texture on headers we found that it doesn't like the high temp. that close to the motor. I use a flex joint on all our exhausts and from there back the text holds up fine. I have been doing it for about 3 years now and we have it down pat. The sky is the limit on the colors we can do to. My buddy Jason at Allegheny Metal Finishing is the one to talk to if your interested.724-695-3233 just tell him you know Curt he'll give you the hook up. Hope that helps. Thanks
Thanks Curt!!!! I really appreciate the info! I am thinking about changing the plans for my truck and doing black on black and black colored exhaust would be a sweet touch. Does the black exhaust show dust easy? Also does it scratch easy? So do i get to see some build pics of this truck? Sounds SICK!!!! Thanks for the complements on my build. This is all kind of new to me so there is a big learning curve but I love every minute of it. Talk to you later.

Josh
