Default De-Blingin the Motor

After all this time I am just worn out on keeping up the polishing on the motor. I have decided to do something a little different under the hood with "highlights". All of the parts below are powdercoated with "crinkle" black. I will have a Crinkle Magna Charger on the top of the engine soon to match the rest of the engine bay. I would like to thank Xtreme Performance Heat Coatings in Oxnard, CA for the great job on the parts! I saw Big Daves wheels down there, and I ALMOST took them!

His work is stellar and the price is fair, PM sent. I do not think it will be too much of an issue to talk about his company here, there is not a sponsor that specifically powder coats.
