I did something a little different. I painted it black then used a transparent marbleizing agent with a little bit of silver then cleared it.

I was just messing around to see what it looked like. Im gonna change it this spring probably.

cool did you keep yours the same as mentioned a bit ago? Or add a few?

I'm still waiting for all kinds of stuff to come together in the engine bay so I can install the LEDs I got - all reservoir covers, hose ends and catch can are at plater waiting to be black chromed, only thing missing are intake clamps that are finally being made then they will go to plating – might have plenum and tbs black chrome plated too (its black chrome powder coat now)... having plastic pieces re-painted (first round of black chrome paint didn’t turn out quite right) - just got my engine cover and center air duct (snorkel back) from air brush artist (it looks great!) - had OEM Z-tube painted, but FINALLY got the CF Z tube from MSA (the Z store), but it was their only one so those of you that were following that thread they have more on order... so the CF tube is getting painted black chrome - caskyline is gonna make a new ground wire kit for me (this will be the third set – not by him, all different) but it finally will be the cover color that I've been after! Techflex carbon PetFlex wire sleeve over AWG4... Got some TechFlex F6 split mesh sleeve for the main wire loom and painless performance split mesh for the smaller looms (all black) - I have projectxcustoms blue LEDs waiting to be wired up to hit everything with a cool accent...

So lots of stuff waiting for finish - some stuff ready, but weather hasn’t been cooperative (until last couple days, but I've been working)... But hopefully in another couple weeks most, if not all the engine bay will be done!

Had some PowerGrid endlinks on order for 2 weeks, found out today they were shipped out!!! Yeah! So when they get here with Eibach rear camber a toe adjusters, I'll swap Pro springs with Sportline and have a Papa wannabe stance (wannabe as in trying to be Papa, not a crossbreed between Papa and user name wannabe

This stuff takes sooooo much damn time its crazy!

Still have to get car in to have radiator core support re-done - it was painted when the bumper was fixed and trunk lip molded, but they didn’t fill a few holes... also having grille re-done... contemplating reverse hood cowl (probably will have shop do that when the car is in there next)... then the only thing is fender flare (that’s the one I've been shying away form) - if/when I do that I'll have the doors shaved.

Then done! (for now ) At least with cosmetics… then back to figuring out what more to do with performance… Oh yah, I forgot… waiting to see what goes on with OEM Akebono after market rotors and 2 in-the-works mounting bracket options… so brakes are on the short list too…

That looks cool. I remember some of the 1st GMC Denali (sp?) had black wood trim and I always liked it.
