I suspect many brands like rustoleum, VHT, and Dupli-Color are more similar than they are different.

POR-15 has a good reputation at being resilient against corrosion. Their kit has a prep primer for neutralizing rust, and it was relatively inexpensive.

With new good condition calipers I'd probably go with G2's caliper kit. Two part epoxy finish, paint with an activator.

I coated a 1970 frame in a restore with POR-15, and restored an old steering wheel with their wheel kit. Good stuff.

Bolted up an invidia Q300 cat back exhaust system that i picked up today locally for 300 bucks (not sure what they go for but that seems decent?). It's paired with HKS EL header added a few weeks ago. Seems to be a decent combo. More drives will tell. It's tame.

This is the last thing I did on the car about a month ago. Cleaned, checked and prepped! Was sidetracked due to illness. Coming out on the other side now and need to get back at it.

Finally installed Tom's side skirts I've had sitting in my garage for 6 months. Took 2.5 hours because I'm cheap, and used stuff doesn't come with instructions and hardware. 28 bolts later, they're secure. I'm never buying used mods again (that's a lie).

That's weird, I took a picture with Tapatalk but it didn't post I guess.

I'll take some tomorrow. It's in the garage now
-------------------------------------------------------------
I'm gonna call these "side splitters" instead of skirts since they are horizontal


I dunno why the forum made these so grainy. Maybe because of the original file size?
