I installed my new Pacemaker headers and Webers on the weekend. Just want to check and make sure that the blue paint that they come in will change color and they will go black/grey once l get it going? I assume so but can anyone confirm? If they dont l will need to have them painted as the blue looks terrible.

They stay abit blue...even years later

So if you want them grey take them off and paint them
POR15 does a product called manifold grey that looks OK

I actually don't mind the colour on them, But hey each to their own as VHT make a hundred different exhaust paint colours and only around $15 per can, which same couldn't be said for any of the POR products.... Maybe they should change the name of that stuff to POOR as that's what the buyer is after purchase......

Once they get wet (from road spray under the car) while hot the blue turns to brown.
