way to stickit to em' frenchy. remember when we talked online about this? i did not mention any problems. because your radiator will not get affected. the hottest part is the tubing that carries the fluid no the radiator front panel itself. if it was blazing hot it wouldnt cool anything off. you are safe.

What about possible runs of paint into the radiator fins.

I guess I can see how it would cool off otherwise with the paint on.

Yea the first one is for the a/c which is the one you painted the second one is the main radiator. You won't have any engine heat issues.

no prob

you shoulda atleast put a ram head in it or somethin



I think I'm gonna paint my a/c lines that are at the front black. cause those 2 lines look like crap. they are too noticable.


I was thinking on putting a mopar M on my rad. it think it would look pretty good.


EDIT

haa, I just noticed it in my sig, you can see that stupid line too. its on the lower passenger side grill. stupid line. my a/c dont work anyways[:@]

Remember that CTD ( I think it was Triton) and how he put D O D G E on the front of his rad? That looked great. Might be something worth doing later in the future.
