just pick up any "Lowrider" magazine and you will see ads of spray guns you can buy that will do that "gold plated" look.

Why go gold when you can "One up" him by going "platinum plating" instead of gold plating.

No one can touch you if you got platinum plating.

Thats cool. As long as you try to be anything but yourself, you're ok in my book!!

Thinking for yourself is SO overrated!!!!

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by SeVeNisOnE &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">I think it is gold plated, either that or its brass plated. In my opinion thats too reflective to be painted. Plus gold plating isn't that expensive, especially to someone who can throw on some ITBs on their engine. I'd says it was probably $150 to plate all that. If you polish metal then spray it with paint, I don't see how the paints sticks without etching the metal or even shows the reflectiveness of the material through the paint.

one time in my life i was thinking of painting the integra w/ gold crhome paint, but **** was very costly. plus finding the right people that can do the procedure right and has the equiptment was tough. http://www.alsacorp.com even with referal from alsa corp.

AND ALLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTT OF PATIENCE

all jokes aside, whether it gold plate(almost certain) or powdercoated, its custom made which means it was custom paid($$$).

it done on a hardparked car, and the olny ppl that would do such a mod, would be building a hardparked car.

if this still doesnt make sense to ya.
ill keep it simple

ballers dont shop at autozone. when the last time u saw bill gates at the 99c store.

dont get me wrong tho, im not hatin on ya for trying to make ur car nicer, just if ur gonna fake it , fake it right

if u know what i mean


and a dude a couple of post up has it right, oneup him wit platinum plated.


THIS THREAD IS MAKING MISTER T MAD!!!!!!!
