I'm sure when it is mass produced it will be cleaned up.

Quick question,

why is some part of it color blue

Is it for looks or is it actually has different material composition?

thanks

Nah that is just the color titanium turns when you heat it up. Thats how they get those blue titanium exhaust tips and what not. You can do it on a normal metal as well in a process called anodizing where you use an electric current to create the same effect. It can be done at home.

It is all titanium.

The only benefit over stock I see this giving you would be weight savings.

That and the stock pieces always flex more than titanium, if that is what it was made of, too lazzy to look back.

Looks like 7075 or 6061 heat treated aluminum to me. look at the silver areas, Ti doesn't look like that, unless the pics are just off.

Why the hell are parts that don't make HP so damn expensive? If simple parts like this are that expensive, the I think I'll keep my future Z stock.

if thats really titanium, which i hope it is for $2k...thats a beautiful piece. Looks beefy as hell
