Couple of Questions...

I've got a few questions so instead of making 2 or 3 dif. threads I figured I'd just make 1 and put all of the questions together.

1. I've been thinking of debadging for quite some time but I'm worried that the paint under the emblems will be darker than the rest of the car. BTW its SSM and its an 06. Do I have anything to really worry about?

2. I have stage 4 exhaust and whenever I rev up to say 2.5K RPMS I get a little gurlge and was just curious as to what it is. I've heard that it is excess fuel but just wanted to get a definitive answer.

3. I'm going to get my stock rims powdercoated and can't decide between gunmetal or black. Just wanted to get yalls opinion on which color would look best on SSM.

Thanks Azine

Welcome to AZ! I drove through Macon today actually lol

1. Chances are your paint will NOT be darker under the badges. I've never even heard of that.
2. By gurlge, do you mean a drone? If so it's normal.. but usually around 1.5k rpms
3. Post a picture of your car, to see how well each color would flow

Ross, don't worry about the paint under your badges. Your car is painted all at once-without the badging, which is probably one of the last things put on your car.

Your powdercoating color is personal preference. I've got a silver Acura-it would be a tough choice for me. I would kind of lean towards gunmetal myself.

1. Nothing to worry about. You can always buff out the area.

2. If you've done stage 4, that's most likely rasp you're hearing, since you're running a straight pipe from the cat back.

3. I'd leave it stock color.
