Norton Posted February 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Thanks for the kind words, guys! I'm happy with the way they turned out. I have ( 2 ) sets of the stock ones sitting around, what does it cost to powder coat a set ?. The cost to powder coat both covers with TWO colors, including return shipping, is $150. Because I went with THREE colors (Wrinkle Black, Clear Polish, and Red), my cost was $185. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Horse Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 Your engine looks great with the new coil covers. I recently finished the stock and GT covers along with a stainless fuse box cover just to be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL! I don't think I have any closeups, and the car is tucked into its automotive cocoon, thanks to the inclement weather. The photos here are pretty accurate, though. I'm very happy with them. I've probably logged almost 10K miles with them on, and they still look good. They were EASY to install. (I've never tried removing them, so I can't speak to that.) They're about as "factory" looking as they can be, and they do a decent job of protecting the rocker panels. Bottom line: I'm very picky about my car, and I recommend them.

Bad Horse Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 So how do they attach to the existing stock guards? snap in place or are screws removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norton Posted February 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 So how do they attach to the existing stock guards? snap in place or are screws removed? My car didn't come with stock guards. It's been a couple of years since I installed mine but, IIRC, they clip into place and are held there with a couple of existing push-pins. What I remember clearly is that the job was quick and easy. Instructions are attached... Stone Guard Installation.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
