Really nice, I would bet. Might have to try it. I also have CF fender vents but I really think that is going to look too boyracer for my mostly street car. Sometimes less is just enough.

I color matched mine and love them. It's only a subtle change against the gun metal, but I think it would look great color matched or black on the Magma Red :yum:

But you can do better than plastidip. Didn't cost much for adhesion promoter, paint (KAD code), and clear coat. Got everything in spray can form from automotivetouchup dot com. Results are proportional to your prep and time spent :tup:

I had a new foam cannon I was gonna try out but ended up giving it to a family friend. He called and said he used it for the first time this weekend and he had 4-5 guys from the neighborhood all asking to try it out. :icon17:

If you're going to do that, just remove them, mask them off and paint them. That's what I did with mine.

Car is washed and I wiped it down with their quick detailer to try it out. Easy on, easy off. Glossy. What more can ya ask for?

Now I gotta polish the exhaust and make it look purty.
