Hi all,
On the transmission cover there is a plate that says "six speed".
I want to powder-coat this part (not the whole cover) and my question is, is this plate glued on or double side taped as it feels "movable"

Hope this makes sense.
Thanks all.
Rowle

 

It's double sided tape, heat it up with a heat gun and it will come right off. Took me about five minutes and then a little "Goof Off" to clean up the residue and you have a nice clean chrome surface.

 

thanks for asking been wanting to change mine out

 

must be some strong a$$ tape to withhold the heat for the header pipe it doesn't fall off

 

Thanks for that info.

 

The Forum in action... I had been trying to figure out if I was going to need to find a smooth cover to replace mine, as I didn't want the "6-speed" deal. I read this an hour ago, went out, heated it up, and used "Goo Gone". I now have a beautiful, smooth chrome trans cover! $"0"... The price is so right... This forum is always a great resource.

 

Thanks for the replies.

Does anyone know what kind of double sided tape HD use to stick these on ?
I am powercoating my mine so will need to stck it back on at a later date.

Thnaks all.
Rowle.

 

Good info, I away yank mine off for the bare chrome look.

 

The tape is made by 3M.....You can get at a auto parts store with different widths and thickness...

 

Is the 3m tape what HD use ?
has anyone got a part number as there are loads of differentr 3m tapes ?

Thanks again.
Rowle,
