The pipes were ceramic coated both the pipes and heat shields.
The wheel spikes will be gloss back powder coated to match the vivid black.
Im trying to get rid of any chrome or silver that is left including the oil dipstick and gas cap


Still havn't decided if i should black out the motor or go with the grey color it is just grey out the rest of it.

I kind of like the grey with the black pipes.
