My engine bay detailing!

I opted for something a tad different. Hydro Dipping them in Carbon Fiber. I had not seen this done yet but I think it looks great. A local guy runs his own business and has a tank big enough to dip.

Thanks. This guy uses a thick clear coat and does 2 coats. It is far different than the DIY kits' clear.

I have thread in the Turbo Lounge on Hydrodipping. Didn't mean to hijack OP.

He charged $125 a piece for them! Buying a DYI kit I can hardly beat that price and then have to face logistics of how to dip something so large in heated water. (Hot tub anyone?) Not to mention if you make any mistakes and have to dip again. I had another dipping company here quote me $500 each.

Any more questions on these let's take it to my thread in the turbo lounge though. OP has been cool about it but again, my intention wasn't to hijack his thread.
 
Well been a while since i updated this tread so here i go!

Detailed the intake got it powder coated and all the brakets and fuel rail as well put on some 60 pound injectors at the same time!
