Re-Engraving logo on Borrani spinners

Dear All, being in Padua at the Auto Epoca I spoke to the guys from Borrani. I asked them if the have the 250/275 style spinners with Route Borrani on them, not Route Borrani Milano.

Finish of External water pipes on a 250 GTE?

Dear All,

what finish were the External water pipes on a 250 GTE? I have seen nickel, silver cad and painted gloss black. What would be right for a Series 3?

Thanks a lot
