OK, i have had these laying around for ages.
Never installed them on my tib, painted em, and cleared them, never baked em, and they could prob use a new coating from being thrown around for the last year or so.
I had them made to prevent the nasty studs from rusting and looking like poo. My dad made them for me.
They have a smaller head (i believe 12/13mm) on them so they are thin as possible.
40$ shipped in the US. paypal only. 01importshark@gmail.com

Any idea if they change color after using them? Im interested in shiny new nuts for my header. I just purchased 10 m10 1.25 nuts from the dealership which I have yet to install. They are painted black. They are a new style with a flange which superseded the old style with a non-hex smooth flat area. I kinda like them, but I'd take nice shiney ones over these black ones if they would stay shiney.
oh dang.. i didn't read well. Do you have current pictures?

well, since you will prob re-coat em anyway, they wouldn't discolor, since it would be painted. the studs don't get near as hot as the actual header.
i would honestly doubt they would discolor, especially being coated.
i can post some current pics if you want, haven't taken any yet. dont know how much detail will be caught in the 'defects'
they are a bit scratched up from rubbing together. the only reason i coated them, is they are mild steel, but they aren't scratched enough, since they aren't rusted at all.
EDIT: just tried taking some pics for ya, tried to get as much detail as possible.

I'm going to pass on this. I'm looking for simple projects right now. If it dosn't bolt on, i'm not dealing with it because I only have 30 days left until I move.

not trying to kill a sale Nate but i would like to tell the people that maybe buying these that have a megan header that they may not fit. i believe it is cyl.#3 that is really damn close to the bolt and another place i cant remember right now at the moment.

no bigge lee, glad you said that, cuz id feel kinda crappy if someone bought em and even one didnt fit.
the reason i got them done, was the piping on my turbo manifold was so big, i could barely get the stock nuts on. i actually had to partially round them off.
i know these wont work with the maintec equal length either.
and on that topic, they wont work with the treadstone manifolds either.
