I like it!!! Who says toys have to be practical or well mannered? All depends on what the intended use is.
Check around with some of the racers and builders in your area for the exhaust. It will more then likely all have to be fabricated then if you wish sent off for coating, chroming, or whatever. I use a place down in Iowa that does a black coating (along with other choices) on headers and exhaust. It seems to hold up very well and sure does help with temps and the looks. Roger had his headers redone by ????? and they came out excellent, too!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Don't take it wrong, I think the coupe is a great little car, but I also believe that it's going to take some work to make it into a safe, predictable street/highway driver, and for me I would have wanted to at least get it up to speed on a back road to understand what I was getting into before plunking down cash, but that's just me. It all depends on how you plan to use it, and with a good chassis guy gettin' after it I'm sure it will be fine.
Mine were done by Jet Hot, and I highly recommend them for their outstanding customer service. Packing to get them there undamaged is a hassle, and the bigger/bulkier they are the bigger the hassle and higher the cost. Hand carrying them is an excellent approach if the logistics work.Last edited by rspears; 07-29-2012 at 06:20 AM.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
