I would love that, or a set of hookers. But thats dough I dont have. Went out to the garage the other day and the old goodyear eagle st rubber had given out. The bead has a leak from dry rot. I ordered a set of BFG radial TA's and yesterday found a colt 1911 anviii. So those pipes will be a while haha

There isn't much harm in just leaving it as is for now is it? Will it start to "flake" more, or whatever anodized coatings do, if nothing is done?

Thanks,
