AD4M Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 i'd recomend ceramic coating rocer covers (actualy anything you plan to paint get ceramic coated) its high temp resistant and wont flake away over time like painting does comes in metalic colours or a chrome finnish, the chrome finnish is a bit more expensive.. its also good for coating exhaust housings on turbos, as it keeps the heat in which technicly helps spool the turbo faster. competition coatings in kelmscot i think it is, look it up Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/153190-polish-rocker-cover-and-plenum/#findComment-2857308 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD4M Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 this is my mate Anthonys rb25 ceramic coated rocker covers, brake booster, wiper motor,power steering pump, alternator and pullys vinci chrome in malaga polished the plenum (top and lower), turbo comp cover, cas and ignition module and looked after chroming various parts and brackets going to this extent in detailing isnt cheap haha Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/153190-polish-rocker-cover-and-plenum/#findComment-2857360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tofu Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 That is so god damn sexy. That is exactly how I plan to do mine so now I have to change my ideas. Looks like all shiny for me then. I will give briffa a call tomorrow to get the rocker covers, plenum and all intakes done.

masTers Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Dont forget to factor in the (high) cost of new gaskets and that when your polishing/chroming everything. Pics of my bay are floating around the net too.
