Pictures of my GN

Hey guys, I thought you might like to see some pictures of my GN. I spent all winter on the engine bay trying to make it look as new as possible. I basically took everything apart and had all the parts either painted or coated!! Im happy with the results!! ----Jeremy

I had the headers, cross-pipe, turbo shield, and up-pipe all ceramic coated. It was the closest thing I could find to make it look metal and not painted. I wanted to get the the rear diff cover ceramic coated also but didnt have time to take it apart yet. When I take the rear diff cover in, I am also going to bring in the THDP to get coated. Its a little expensive but it looks awesome and I dont care for chrome because its not stock!! On the valve covers and doghouse I used Dupli-Color 1200 degree ceramic paint. The color is Aluminum part number DH1606. You have to bake them in the oven for 1.5 hours at 400degrees. It looks awesome when they are on there. I wanted to make the car look new and not have any chrome!! Thanks for the compliments!! HEY PHILLY, thats cool our cars are near each other!! ---------Jeremy
