Very slick. I like the color combos you guys are coming up with. I dig the red and black combo, and I am sure the red and gold will look sweet as well. If I could see my cam covers I'd do something like that too! Mine are mostly hidden under the intake tubes...

But I still think the spider is prettier than the s4 intakes!

Nice job! With good prep, they should be fine. I put my oil cap, fuel rail covers and a few other small plastic parts in the dishwasher. The cap looks new. I painted the fuel rail covers.
BTW - Dave, your link doesn't seem to work for me.

I use the side view photo from your website as my computer desktop background. It's a beautiful thing, Sterling!

Cool...

I assume your car is blue or silver?

I started reading this when it was first posted and don't have a lot of time to read through it right now, but how well would the ceramic coating work on wheels?

Hey Sterling?
Has that variocam engine made its way back into a shark?
I remember the website but I don't have a link anymore.
Interested in knowing how that all turned out?

Cheers

It's an awesome project, and I really hope it turns out well. You did a lot of work so far, and it looks great. Don't get discouraged! It's going to be awesome when you finish!
