Hey everybody whats going on?? I got my apex air diversion plate today. I like it alot for being a piece of sheet metal, lol. Anyways my question is? has anybody anodized any of the engine parts??? There is a local place that does anodizing and i was thinking about having my intake pipes and my air diversion plate anodized red?? Any opinions or thoughts?

Also got my new rotors today so i thought id show some pics of them?? they look pretty damn nice for ebay rotors, $146 shipped?

Kartboy bushings are slightly stiffer than TWM, but both are much stiffer than the stock rubber one. If green is your favorite color, you could check out StageFourMotorSports. I don't know how they compare with the yellow or blue bushings, but they look just as decent.
 
Nice you got your rotors!!! I cant wait to get mines. How long did they take form when you order them to when you got them?
 
Anodizing works pretty well. I've had some paintball stuff done, but never any car parts....

its suppose to divert air towards the radiator, plus it just helps clean up the engine bay.

Truthfully, nothing. Though I must admit that it does look nice.

thanks

so they are pretty much the same, all better then stock? thanks
