alright. on protege garage, they have a picture of teh obx installed, whats the little metal pipe that is connected to the top?

and good job on the ghetto fender rolling. i might do that until i can get them rolled professionally, just so that the wheels wont rub

obx is gold then turns purple, the silver comes from having it jet coated, which will not make it turn purple

They're raw stainless. I had mine ceramic coated by Jet-Hot. The bung (pipe) is for the EGR pipe.

If you leave it raw, just REALLY clean it before you fire things up. Any oil or dirt will just burn in and turn purple. It will get a nice even bronze look with use.

If you have a couple hours and some 00 stainless wool, this can be fixed

Hey Patrick, what front motor mount are you using?

Hey Patrick, what front motor mount are you using?

That was the AWR front mount in 88 ("auto") durometer ... Some don't mind the vibrations it brings, I hated it so I took it out. Both $treetUnit and SLC have less extreme mounts available now ...

 

[redpr5]

bala i like your hid kit, 8000K?
looks nice

I am running that new one from SLS. What a difference! When I took out the stocker, I found it was totally ripped. Did you do the side or rear?
