Cheers mate! All to the speed limit on the highways ;)

I did it all this arvo mate, so much to remember and my fingers are tired lol

As in the cooler pipes you mean? No cheapo paint for them? That update is coming up next ;) ill just say they look awesome

But the diffback will be blacked out, tempted to powdercoat that instead of painting it lol

Oh ok! No wonder I missed it!

Yeah the cooler pipes, or any of his pipe work with welds, looks so amazing! Shame to coat over anything. And I'm a fan of stealf!

And by paint, I just meant some form of over coating! I'd powdercoat the diff back, mines painted, and it's flaked twice now!

Flaked ay? What paint and prep did you use?

My guy uses ceramic type powder coat as he primarily is a high tem ceramic coater, so im confident itd be pretty strong

And hes real cheap too, with a 48hr turnaround including sand bladting as part of the deal

....Not much prep :P bit-o wet and dry, then wax and grease remover and then engine enamel, Probably my problem. but if you got a good guy, surely it would just be easier haha. Definitely more durable too!

That was an awesome build!

If I still had my RX I'd definitely do something like this to it.

This is what the B4 could have been :D
