Re: 12-bolt differential cover, black color and texture?
Only one I see in the same shape is chrome.
You guys were dead-on about the pitting. Course you knew that. It was pretty bad. I had dedicated too many hours already, so I dedicated more. I've never done "precise" metal work before, but I hammered out the dents, which were all small (lucky). Shaped it right. Sanded, sanded and sanded. Kind of cool making it like new again. At any rate, I got most of the pitting out and it's flat. A couple layers of epoxy, it will be smooth too. Was it worth the 8 hours plus scrubbing and sanding? Before I hammered the dents out I thought no (did it out of frustration with pitting, figured what the heck). Besides, I learned something. Thanks for your help.
