LoL I was waitin for someone to finally notice that. Yeah I did that on purpous. It was a unique idea I had and I think it looks better like that IMO, but that's me. I thought I also saw someone else have theirs like this before but don't remember. Just a different way to do things.

You could try Zoopseal.

Is that like a clear coat? I'll try searching for it and see what it is. Thanks.

Why doesn't anyone talk about polished parts having less surface area and therefore radiating less heat away? Come to think of it that's good in some cases, like post IC tubes and manifold : )

It'd be interesting to actually measure the difference on two otherwise identical parts.
