The red crackle on my engine manifold is falling off in clumps on my MY99 STI Type-R. There are now patches where the metal is showing through.
Does anybody know where to get this paint from, or a heat resistant paint with a decent colour match?
Cheers,
Craig.

Im just waiting on Motormal to get the log book back from DVLA
which should be around the end of next week all being well, then i can pick it up either next weekend or begining of the following week
Just a thought about your manifold paint, you could try asking the Suburu dealer at Ashburton as its the same as used on a P1 manifold!
Only prob is, i would think it would be a head ache to do, as you'd need to take off the manifold and strip all the bits off for a pukka job.

Thats the one, drove past there to day strangely enough,
its worth a try.
Trouble is with it, its got a strange finish/texture, difficult to replicate with any old red paint i should think.
Good luck with it anyway.
