Rob_Mitchell Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 Well i have lost alot of sleep over 2 blue hose finishers which SRD happily put on my car. I have now just got all the hose finishers done in gold 1x -12an fitting 2x -8an fittings 2x -6an fittings 2x -4an fittings should look much better and tie in with my stupid theme. Still waiting for strutbrace to arrive, im so tempted to gold plate it but it will cost a fortune . Brakes should be here soon too and im very much looking forward to seeing them, hopefully before japshow. Ill get some pics up soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Gold plated TRD brace would look immense! And would probably be the only one in the world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 Gold plated TRD brace would look immense! And would probably be the only one in the world! Ill sleep on it , i want to fit it first as i like the look of mine at the moment without it. I also think just the centre part with the holes in would look mad gold plated, like clay has done but he did his purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 That would look insane, but it does get very hot under there. That'd be a nightmare to keep on top of cost wise if it did start to come off! Maybe just do the turret mounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 I have had no trouble with gold plate flaking or coming off. If anything it gets better with the heat far better than chrome, im very suprised. ill keep you all posted, just need a big bucket and alot of 24ct forumlar.

Rob_Mitchell Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Had the fuel rail sheild arrive today and im very happy with it. Its made so it replaces the 3 brackets which locate above the injectors. Once its fully polished and gold plated it should look nice. I tested the fitment on a old rail i had at work.
