Is that a crack in the cast iron OEM manifold?

Hmmm, how’s about a set of hub caps?



These from Hubcap mike are cool!


Look sweet with red painted rims on a black car.

hauled home a new office chair last night, love that I don't second guess whether things will fit

and today the black grill I ordered was delivered, thinking I might body-color the outside like this guy that I saw on FB

Be very careful transferring the studs into that new grille, I suggest you drill out the hole a bit as the stud is much larger than the provided hole. Many have reported the mounts breaking trying to screw in the mounting studs.

Mine came in my body colour!

Started blacking it out, Hella hot outside, almost 90 and humid, sweating like all get out ! Anyways did the rear badge, mirror covers and grill, see how the paint holds up before doing the handles. Scuffed it up good, cleaned, primed and painted. Baked in the sun a bit to dry real good. Going to rain later so I didn't bother washing and waxing for now. Next I need to fix that rear bumper.

A little late to mention but the chrome part of the mirrors are caps that just pop off and snap back on.
