Painting Headers
#1
I want to go with a red contrast for my black focus and I was wondering what paint can I use if at all to paint my FS race header.

Whatever paint you use, make sure when you're finished and decide to start the engine, only run it for a minute or two and then let it rest for about 10. Do that 3-5 times and the paint should stay on forever. At least that's what I've done with my bikes headers and it worked fine.
Old enough to know me limit, yet young enough to exceed it.

Better than painting, but more pricey.
