Looks clean you dont need any of that control **** anyway.

Is that a Jet Hot style coating?? I wanted to do my manifolds in it but that doesnt look as mirror finish as I thought. I just got my TB back today.... I love the reflection off the TPS...

I just had mine polished. I was looking into coatings for the larger parts but I didn't know if it would turn out to have a high shine like polishing. Where did you get yours coated and how much?

Then why do you want to put them back in? Just plug the hole up and watch the pedal why the car is cold.
