I'm not sure yet. It's aluminum so it won't rust, but I need to put something on it so it doesn't tarnish. Either some clearcoat or powdercoat.

Yup, I own a 2001 Aurora. It's the 3.5L V6 but after the flowmasters, removed resonator, high-flow cat and CAI it moves nicely!
Here's a pic:

NICE! I really like the white ones. And the chrome looks sweet too.

powder coat is the way to go. black with red or maybe green numbers & letters.

Well, I decided not to use powder-coat. But I think this will look awesome!

You knocked a whole second off of your 1/4 time with just a CAI, exhaust, high-flow cat, and headers!?!? Makes me wonder what my car would run with the CAI, exhaust, high-flow cat, and headers Haha
