    Headers and sidepipes with supertraps was 550.00. Jet hot coating. Wolfscoatings out of lamarque TX. They look shinney I just wasnt as pleased with the outcome, wasnt smooth enough on the spraying. Alot of it is smooth some of it isnt.

    Well, in that first pic they look nice! Sorry to hear of the "issues". I want to have my block hugger headers done, I guess I'll contact Jet Hot to find someone in my area possibly. Thanks for the info.

    The price wasnt bad, never called anybody else. Do you want the #? Its not that bad just felt since there exposed on the car I wanted better. Unless better would have been another 500 then they are great

    I did find a vendor in CT. Thanks for the help! With your attention to details, your car will be a show piece for sure!

    I which, I hate bodywork I stopped to finish up a model a roadster for a buddy that has been sitting in my garage for a year, to a stopping point again on his car, so I get to start working on mine again now Got the passenger door and the inside of the door smooth, so now I am working on the divers door jamb.
    I keep finding things to smooth more, once you put color on a car everybody will nick pick it, that whats nice about primer rides. But I want color on this car so I am nick picking it before somebody else does
