I dont know if this is an odd question or not, but I already have a Canton tank painted wrinkle black. Would your intercooler tank painted the same look okay? Also, would your cap with the window fit the tank I currently have?

if its wrinkle black it should be close enough. no, our window cap only fits our tanks. we custom made the cap and the ring it screws into. just sell that thing, before the welds crack :uh oh::p

On the intercooler tanks what is the window cap material made of? My concern is that over time once it is exposed to heat multiple times it will turn yellow. I have seen several plastics due this over time and was curious what the material was made of?

Like El Puto Grande as pictured above. What ever the black is and the caps the same w/ windows of course.

Sorry for being a pita, to make it simple, I want El Puto Grande as pictured with the textured black finish. I plan on going with a TVs blower in the future.

Invoice [email protected] and I'll send you the deposit.

thanks

The cap is aluminum and the "glass" is poly carbonate

Thanks Steve, so its basically the same material most headlight covers are made up of. It would take years of direct exposure from the sun to have any ill effect on these. Needless to say I dont think to many of us will drive around with our hoods off 365 days a year. Im still contemplating one of these, the more I look at them the more I like them :).
