I see many great looking engines in the engine bay thread. What is the grayish finish on the intake runners? Is that powercoated or painted? What is the color and where can I get it?
Thanks, Kev |

This one of the VERY few applicatons where I consider P-coating acceptable, though I wouldn't do it. P-coating is not really resiliant, so I would never use it underneath. In this application, since it isn't subjected to the outward elements, it could work. Still, I being a semi-purist, would go with conventional paint.
This thread came up some months ago, and a VW source was found that looked dead-on. I'd suggest a search on all forum for that. Pat |
