Stage II complete
Just had my FAST 102mm intake painted. I can't stand the light gray color they come from the factory. This is more subtle and to my taste.
I also had spoiler wrapped in 3M Di-NOC. I am also having several other components covered in this material. The stuff is absolutely amazing. I'm going to do my Fuel Injector Covers just like these in the Di-NOC material as well. It will match the intake & the car. Anyways, just sharing in the evolution of the transformation. |

Do you have to treat them with the tire still on the rim? I thought about doing the wheels on my F-150 with that stuff. My badges, front splitter and side markers should be done later this week. Then I just have to go back to N.C. to pick them up. Going to get my tires mounted on my new wheels tomorrow. |

Awesome, but stop sitting on the job in a rolling chair. You'll never get done.

There is actually a bonding agent you can apply if you want the material to stick stronger. But I doubt the engine compartment gets as hot as the direct heat of a heat gun which is what it pretty much takes to get this stuff to release, as you know. Very nice job on the console btw! I'm doing the console, control panels on each side of the cluster, steering wheel panels and door controls. |

Looks good, don't know about the spoiler though. I also would have kept the red R on the intake, otherwise everything looks great!

For some reason he is only selling graphite, brown and white. That may be why he is a tad cheaper; those colors are in far less demand than matte and gloss black. I'll contact him to verify. Thanks for the tip Chris!!! : |
