    so we decided to mess around with a new blue ceramic coating and it turned out AWESOME. we will officially be coating in the optional blue color..just let us know whether you want stealthy black or the new spicy blue. its a touch darker than WRB but compliments the wrb color really well.

    its the same type of coating we have used in the past..just colored.


    yummy pics

    - duh but how much you think?

    well whatever it costs, not worth it unless the place will do it in exchange for advertising or "show-off" rights or something

    what you'd want to do is thermal disperse the engine itself...which will definitely cool then engine off quicker. if you didnt want to pay in cash...this is valued enough to where we'd need a banner on your ride to pay for it and to attend local track/race events.

    mask everything you don't want black and white, invert, turn down color saturation and bingo.

    My question's would be:

    Why blue since your never going to see it? Does it cost more?
    What is it going to look like after winter and numerous heat cycles?

    1. you can actually see the crosspipe when looking down in teh engine bay...really just another option for people. No, it is the same price.

    2. the coating has already been cured in those pics, nuke has a set on his car and the last time i looked at it it still looked nice.
