Default NEW CANDY APPLE TRANS

http://turbod16.com/viewtopic....hilit=

Some pics of me newly painted trans that everyone hates on. One said its gonna trap in heat, yea hes an idiot. The other says i have a spray booth and didnt take anything off, when obviously hes never seen a trans taken all part with nothing inside. CAUSE THERE IS NOTHING TO TAPE U IDIOT. Sorry guys that when i put my car back together i want it to look nice and not just plain alumunium. Painted trans with a cleaned block with a candy valve cover will look quite nice. Come on guys just cause u cant have it doenst mean u have to hate. Give me 100 bucks and ill paint urs the same.

The block im getting sandblasted and im gonna keep it the aluminum look with a clear on it. Buy i did do the valve cover in the same color. So trans and valve are candy and the block is gonna be the aluminum look...should look very nice when put all together

Looks good man. If you carry out the same attention to detail with the rest of the build it should be pretty awesome.

u should paint the bay gold. candy red and gold look sick together. btw, is this going to be a show car or what? i think you can definatly go too far with this kind of thing and it just starts to look tacky.
i prefer the more stock look, but thats just me.

It looks nice, but I see paint on where all the seals should be placed. Hopefully you don't have paint chip off when trying to install bearings and seals, because it's going to cause nightmares.
