I didn't know this header would turn gold. Here's a pic of it after the car had a couple runs. :chuckles:

And then you spend an hour polishing the header to remove your fingerprints so they don't get burned into the finish.

I thought it was going to turn purple from the beginning. To my surprise it turned a nice goldish color.

:werd: I should have worn gloves, the header was cleaned up at the end of the install though.

Thanks, it doesn't matter how long it takes one to install a part. You got to respect a person who does work on their car without bringing it to a shop. Just from reading this thread you can see that many people went through heartache installing this part. It's a pain in the ass working on cars sometimes, there's so many things that can go wrong. Yet we put ourselves through some tough tasks for the love of our cars. Modifying cars is a hobby that I thought I would have grown out of, yet for some reason I can't. It's like it's in my blood.


-Thanks for the positive feedback fellas.
