I went with silver to spot leaks when they start. I don't plan on ever driving this car in the rain, so it should stay fairly clean.

Its going to look even more sweet with all the stainless steel BEGi heat sheilds, intake box, rad cover, and nickel colored ceramic coating exhaust parts. They almost match perfectly. The exhaust parts are just a little darker. The intercooler pipes match the valve cover too, lol. This car is going to be off tha hizzle.

Originally I wanted to paint everything, and I mean everything, white like the $$$ race cars. I remember when I was in europe looking under the hood of a DTM car and saw that everything was powdercoated white. That way they knew if the car was clean or not.

You Texans are all pussies. I grew up in south Florida. My first car was a VW Beetle, and my second car was also a VW Beetle. No A/C, no defogger, not even a meaningful interior fan. When it started to get unbearable, you just opened another beer.
A/C... Might as well just have another blended frozen Margarita...

I've been to florida. It's not the same.
And there is nothing better than to have a 20 min ride to work and get out with a wet sweaty shirt like you have been jogging. Sorry, I don't like to stink or be around nasty people.
No one wants to be that guy. The claimy one that sweats gravy at work.

If you need the extra power that the AC takes away. THAT IS WHAT NOS IS FOR. NEVER TAKE AWAY AC IN TEXAS!
Seriously tho I'm with Joe on this one. You have a turbo convertible. Put the ******* roof down and go faster. Otherwise buy a coupe.
