Are you going to reapply paint to the sub frame connecters?

We are going to shoot the subframe connectors and the tip of the subframe (where we welded) in the same undercoating stuff as the rest of the underside of the car.

It's made by a company called FUSOR.. it's stays sorta rubbery. The best part is that it adds very little weight to the car. Maybe 2-3 pounds.

They say it holds up pretty good, guess I will be have to judge that for myself.

Was it on the car when you bought it? Just wondering how it might hold up near exhaust stuff.

I recently went and spoke with a local line-x dealer and he thought the line-x would melt if it were within 6" of the pipes/muffler.

No.. sloppy paint was just on there.. lol

Should hold up.. it's an OEM quality stuff. I guess time will tell

I thought Line-X would hold up great, I thought lots of guys ran it. I just didn't like all the weight it added.

The dude says it goes on, nearly molton, at 175 degrees. He didn't think it would take much more than that w/o melting.
