Took the rocker cover and manifold bolts and nuts to work and had them plated.

Before:


After:


Got my rocker cover and manifold back, guy did a very good job on it but he couldnt get into the tiny gaps so he gave me the money back. Going to take it to sweeney sherlock powder coaters to get it shot blasted but they closed so just going tonwait till next week now. On the other hand bagged a miltek 2.5" cat back system from 150+ just waiting for him to confirm delivery tomorrow (hopefully)
Now i have a lil dilemma, what colour should i get the rocker and mani done? I got throttle of so thinking black, red or yellow? The guy that i went to does some cool powder coating colours (black pearl base with a nice silver sparkle but you can see the silver chunks in there he also does it in yellow (i think) and red.
