Andy - The car is looking incredible! I am really really excited to see it finished. The lights are by far the best looking aftermarket headlights for our cars. Keep up the quality work!

Ceramic paint additives atcually will keep the heat in. It's an insulationg paint additive used in painting concrete walls in houses to help insulate and seal from moisture.
What ever Porsche used looks like crap IMHO and is not very good at keeping the alloy from corroding. I'm in the middle of doing a clutch on my S so I had to pull the intake. I decided to paint it along with the cam cover. I am using a SEM OEM aluminum paint. Now that it's nearly done, it dawned on me that I should have had it powder coated instead. Oh well...
