Looks great Joe, in fact I thought of yours when mentioning Hot Toppers. Unfortunately they start at close to $100 for the starter kit. If I recall your first set was a gift from your bro. was it not
yes sir... he counts the bolts that are exposed and just orders those, the kits suck and are a bit over priced... good memory you got there brother!
Good idea about ordering seperate when possible if its cheaper. Don't ask me how I remember **** like that. I've got a photgraphic memory for pretty much everything I see & read.
You can buy the chrome Hottoppers at Ace Hardware as well. I think they even have some different designs that have skulls or something. You can buy them individually, and I think they're cheaper too. Not sure if they have black though.
A good paint match for the bolts is hi-temp BBQ grill paint. I tried Hot Toppers but didn't like the gloss black on the engine & tranny. Plus they didn't cover the washer.
