Default New gold JDM headers!

Just to kill some time I decided to gold plate my DC Header today:

A close up.

I hope you like it, and please, no flames. To each its own, y0!

...ahem, this is just a joke . And no, this is not Photoshop. It's just the way my header turned up after a track day. Curious 'coz it didn't turned blue like other SS headers. It has stayed like that since then.

I don't think so.
It's being like that for many months.

LOL I can't believe how many people fell for that! A gold plated header, ROTFL!

Mike- who's had 2 SS headers.

You guys should learn to windex your stainless headers before you start up the car for the first time.

Oils from your skin/wherever will discolor the header when it gets heated up.

People were always asking me why my header was golden and not blue, blue is more blingy I guess.


JDM DC 4-1, installed 1st week February 2001. Beat that. Pretty sure it was one of the first in the USA.

Don't say anything about the ground, I fixed it.

Well, I guess that's what happened to my header too. I learned that after install the header you should clean the header very well of oils before fire up the engine, so it doesn't get permanently stained.
