It is a clear sheet that is cut to fit the car and it sticks on like contact paper. It is thicker than just about anything I have seen and protects pretty good from stone chips to dead bugs. Does not fade and is waxable, I have it on my front and rear lens with color added.

It was an idea I had to cover up the head lights with a silver tint to blend with the car. Never could get it the way I wanted, he did change the color on the rear tail lights to a cherry red and I like the look as well.

who here polished their stock plenum? i remember someone mentioning it, i want to say jon, but im not sure. the cost to have someone do it is sick.

i think im going to make a weekend project out of it to get a head start on things that need to be done come spring.

ummmm i used wet paper. more expensive but easier to work with. and I used a orbital sander for the big surface areas and a dremel for the rest. Lastly NXT polish little container to bring the shine right out.

YES they will crack or strip out if you do it wrong. I have the pattern on how to retorque them down and what # to torque them to. Also I have a torque wrench if you need one.

Hey guys I am trying to sell my Arias pistons 9.5 CR for 570 + shipping. Anybody want them or know anybody who might please let me know.

The Zdayz web site now has Metro Detroit Z Club as a Sponsor. Figured you all would want to know we are full supports of the event again.

Thanks Jon it means that we are support staff as well, with all the work Mike and you did last year it spoiled them! Andy wanted 100.00 for the entire sponsorship thing, I told him we wanted full publication coverage.
