is it true that if u take a blowtorch n heat up the tip it will turn a bluish color n stay that way like this

xEJ20x · 03-22-2007, 10:50 PM

Yes.

But you'd have to do it from the inner edge.

jdm free · 03-22-2007, 10:52 PM

y inner edge

xEJ20x · 03-22-2007, 10:54 PM

Cause the direct heat and scorch marks you will make are nearly impossible to clean off.

You better have a small blow torch with a low setting then.

Bump to see how this one worked...

gary · 03-23-2007, 12:09 AM

subscribed... either this is going to look good or be a mess.

Sberk06 · 03-23-2007, 12:15 AM

you can but it might start to look crappy after a while and its hard to remove the burns after its on.. its possible to remove it but you will scratch the tip to hell

jdm free · 03-23-2007, 08:02 AM

before i go n try it has any1 done it before

JSeoul · 03-23-2007, 08:07 AM

That does look sweet. I've only see them on Turbo'd vehicles though.

Honest_Bob · 03-23-2007, 08:59 AM

Instresting, I would deffinitly recommend that you take the exhaust off the car if you werent planning on doing so. hmmm... wonder how that would look on a greddy sp2...

jdm free · 03-23-2007, 01:25 PM

i was going to take the axelback off to do it, i wouldnt wanna risk ****ing my bumper up

Sberk06 · 03-23-2007, 01:28 PM

i recomend you not doing it to an exhaust you really like. a buddy of mine is a welder and he told me that i'll eventually hate it becuase i was considering doing it. theres also a chance it will make a different design then the blueish with a fade. so be careful and think about it before you do it. you dont want it to look like your a stupid ricer.

drew · 03-23-2007, 01:39 PM

i'd like to know if it works out, i have a torch and would be willing to try it if it wasn't raining and ****

doug · 03-23-2007, 01:56 PM

why dont you just go buy a titanium exhaust?

...rice.

Buster · 03-23-2007, 06:02 PM

most people can afford titanium, this is why people buy rotas instead of volks.
