We will offer powder coating just not sure of the exact colors yet, and yes all the couplers will be black with white lettering

Just as a possible request, could you do a Red matching the color of the 40th Edition calipers.


Wonder how it would look with the black couplers.

My only worry is I already have the Z1 Red Silicone in the engine bay, and was hoping to have red couplers with black pipes... red pipes might be overload. Hmmm... Maybe the brushed metal ones might look better??

And I think the brushed metal would look very good with the red setup

I'm gonna have to agree.

Will there be another thread for the 'Official sales', or are you already taking orders? Without backtracking a few pages, I wasn't 100% sure if you had the product where you wanted it yet.
