Side Exhaust Covers On - What do you think?
Hi!
Finally was able to get my covers mounted. No pipes yet just the covers.
Sure wish they were chrome - what do you think of the color? There's massive amounts of metallic in the paint so it should be better in the sun.
Oh ya - rear end rebuild is done too.

Larry,
They look great. You will be glad they are not chrome when you are not burning yourself this summer.
Nice work.

They look awesome!!!
I guess I missed another of your posts about these, are they fiberglass?
What did you paint them with?
:cheers:

Thanks Guys!
I wasn't sure they looked right but I guess they do.
The sun came out for a couple minutes and I REALLY like it in the sun.
Now I have to decide what pipes to go with under there. It sounds cool right now with open headers but others may frown on that.
David - You're right, no burns is good. Thanks for the good deal on them.
Johnny - I'm not sure what that stuff is but if you want it it's yours. It may not keep well in Alabama though.
Pete79L82 - I bought them from dcornelius (forum member) and I think they were Ecklers units.
Tom - Yep - they are the fiberglass ones. Painted with Black PPG DBU, Non-Smudge Aluminum (Hi metallic) PPG DBU, and cleared with PPG Delta Clear.

They were Ecklers units. I thought they were very well made. I was impressed. I would have used them on my car but I went with Hooker sidepipes.
