• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Tried a few new items for the bling factor...

Some things we have done before, so nothing new, but we tossed in a few new ones just to see what they would turn out looking like after being either hard chrome plated, or polished to a mirror shine. We were not too sure on the aluminum ones, being of a low grade casting and all, but I believe they turned out pretty good IMO. :th_biggrin2: Most of these parts are mine out of my own supply I thought I would do up in advance and just see how they turn out before hand, and a few others are of customers who wanted work done.

A set of stock GTP exhaust tips polished:

ok my A$$ hurts from kicking it, STOP!!!! J/K but you do make me kick myself for not sending you my plating needs and going with a local company. Next round is coming to you, no doubt.
Those look sweet!
 
Holy sweet mother of God!!! Farns, how much, just send me a number. I got front and rear main seal covers, fuel rails, brackets, LCA's, etc. all off the car. Just shoot me a number. If I have to I'll clean it all up and bring it to you to save on shipping and come pick it back up when its ready.

You don't even want to know what all this cost me upfront. Chaaa-ah-ching on this pick up. Wallet is a tad bit empty on this one till I can make up for it when they go up for sale. I have some more detail buffing on the plating to do on the motor mounts, as they need some more touching up to my likening before they get sold and shipped off. The rest is pretty flawless.

Drop me a PM with the parts you want done and in what, plated, polished, powder coated etc. and I will work my magic and go from there with ya.

General rule of thumb, if its aluminum it can be polished, and if its steel it can be plated. Normally we don't even mess with regular chrome plating, we do all of our parts in hard chrome plating. Google the under lined if you want to know the difference. :th_thumbsup-wink:

Will have a totally new look to it since its going to be a street legal drag car...a rear wheel driver conversion, and still use the 3.8, but with two turbos in a special location. Not saying where, since the fog light placement was already done before I could do it. ;) Living in Wichita, the air capitol of America has its benefits...epically if you like carbon fiber and billet aluminum, we have endless hook ups and connections all over town. :th_thumb-up:

Looks amazing as always Farns!! I wish I could send you and Brian some parts, but sadly money is gonna suck for awhile.
