Sweet!
Guess early summer is OK.


If a customer wanted a custom script would that be possible?
Or cost prohibitive? Just wondering.

I am thinking about moving to side pipes on my 1969 Coupe.

Anyone able to comment on how the Steel Shields look with ceramic coated headers and side pipes? I am still debating ceramic versus chrome, but I am worried about the discoloration that I have heard of with the chrome parts.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Dave

I have made a few custom Steel Shields for folks and it costs around $100 more mostly due to shipping costs.

Dave, our Stainless steel shields seam to go good with Jet-hot coating, chrome and stainless side pipes. If the ceramic coating is silver the highly polished stainless will look good with the silver color making the lettering stand out some.

You can order either order off the Steel Shields web site using your credit card or go to Mid America motor works, Corvette Central or Ecklers web sites to order.

The US inventory is in Bakersfield CA ready for shipping.
