confused, why would anyone want black titanium.

i thought the whole point of titanium was the cool titianium or burnt blue color?

if you want black or another color, wouldn't your money be spend on a hi grade conventional metal faster with an colored finish?

This really make no snese

ok sorry little harsh... i guess since we're talking about fasteners here, weight isn't as big an issue. unless you've got OCD (and conventional fasteners are pretty heavy...)

The whole point of titanium if weight not the burnt look...unless you're a jdm fanboy. Titanium looks great even in raw finish. I'd take it over stainless or aluminum or whatever other metal any day.

Even that being said the entire purpose of these kits is to provide a complete engine bay bolt kit so that all of your bolts look identical. One a stock motor some bolts are black, some are silver, some are oxidized as hell they just don't all match.

Chris if you do manage to get a couple of these made let me know, I'd love to toss them on the car and see how they look.

Thanks for all the input guys! We have had positive response across the board on black, so it looks like it will happen!
