I am going to do a titanium radiator, alternator, turbo and short ram air shrouds. completely custom thanks to the government but let me get some feedback on any ideas you guys have to make it stand out. i am going to cut out BURNER into them but there you go ill put up pics when i have them done in two weeks

Titanium can be anodized with electricity...I have friends that can do it. I'm not sure if they'd do it for you.

Here's a sample of the colors that are possible: http://www.mailleartisans.org/gallery/pics/245ticolorscale.jpg

Apparently it can also be done at home easily: http://theodoregray.com/PeriodicTable/PopularScience/2005/08/1/index.html

They have a machine in the airforce that can do this quickly and you can regulate the volts so that i can get the color i want which is 30
