I got bored today, and decided to paint my hahn charge pipes. I only painted the visible portions(2 pieces). I used duplicolor metal specks ocean blue. I originally wanted the duplicolor mirage which is a color shift, but no one carried it

3-4 coats of the blue. then 3 coats of clear gloss...The metal specks are supposed to be good up to 500* F so I should be good with the heat...







I will post some installed pictures tomorrow, after they dry overnight...Its not exactly easy to install these in the dark

 

Darn, I have a spot for those wanna trade ??

 

I don't really like the textured look of the ZZP pipes(if thats what those are). The smooth looks way better IMO

 

I'm really lovin' on those blue ones. Nice job, I would wait a while to put them on, but I have a spare to drive...

 

I got a trailblazer if needed...but they should be good to put on tomorrow...they will have had 12+ hours to dry...

I can't wait to see what they will look like installed...Not to rub it in but they would match your blue SS better than my dark blue SS

 

That's what caught my eye, funny once I saw the blue one I had to take it home, I have a set of dark blue ones too. Wouldnt those look better on mine, I will tell every one you made them. You will be famous....

 

I almost bought the orange metal specks which is close to GM's sunburst orange metallic. I had an artists moment in the store and thought that maybe the orange would be cool because it would really stick out(opposites on the color wheel) from the dark blue...but I decided on the blue instead.

After the install, I think I may paint the airbox lid, and fuse box cover. I don't want it to be overpowering though...I will have to see how it looks.

 

I saw a nice one lately guy did a nice job on it.
