The bottom picture is just an example, but they are much lighter in sunlight. Anything will be better than that bronze I have.

You just picked the wrong bronze.... the right shade would look killer against that green. NO shade of grey or silver will look better than the right bronze IMO.

And what green would that be? Cam's Bullitt is black.

Headers arrived the other day. I won't be able to finish pulling the engine since it looks like I'll be busy with snow removal this weekend.

Dismounted the wheels today and unfortunately don't have time to drop them off for powdercoating. Will be dropping them off Thursday with my valve covers. I'm 95% sure this is the color I'll be going with pretty much like Forgeline Transparent Smoke/AG Brushed Grigio







Thanks!



I am really digging the flares but I'll have enough appearance stuff on my hands for this year - front and rear bumpers, hood and then installing the glass roof.

Yes! Those are going to look awesome! Are you bringing them up to my neck of the woods for powder coating?

 

[GallopingFord]

Yep. Actually playing hooky and heading to Vagwerks this morning!

Rules were meant to be broken.

Nice! You won't be disappointed. Kenny and Roby are great guys.

 

[GallopingFord]

They were very nice. Roby and I chatted for a while since I found out they could not brush the wheels like I originally planned. Changed the color to "Speedway Grey".

 

[Mystickeith50]

That is the exact color I picked for my forgestars and I was soooo unhappy when I picked them up and they were as light as they were. My guy must have messed up. What wheels are you doing?

Edit- nevermind I went back and saw it. They will look badass.....and if you don't like them I will buy them off you!!!

 

[GallopingFord]

I'll finally have time to wrench on the car tomorrow. Planning on getting the engine out and at least bolting up the headers. If I have time I will also start dismantling the interior again. I may as well start pulling the head liner and plastic trim out for the upcoming glass roof install.

The dash will be pulled again since I'll be installing dynamat on the firewall and going over it with a layer of Raamatt adhesive foam sound insulation. I'm curious to see what improvement it makes. I'll also drop a layer of MLV foam above the dynamat on the floor, below the carpet to see what it does for road noise. I'll eventually get to matting the doors since I haven't done them.

Edit- nevermind I went back and saw it. They will look badass.....and if you don't like them I will buy them off you!!!

You'd like that... wouldn't you? I've been back and forth if I want them shiny or satin finished.

 

[AlbertD]

Curious on your results for the interior sound deadening. Are you keeping track of total weight added?

I have been thinking about about doing some type of sound deadening in my car. I swear I can hear every little rock that gets popped up into the wheel well. I don't mind adding 35lbs or so if road noise levels drop.

 

[ZmanM3]

Eventually I want to do the dyno mat in my car too.
