    Here's a photo of the results from my re-plasti dipping on the chrome surrounding the grille. I think it looks a lot better this second time around.

    Looks really nice, along with the cf mitsu symbol.

    It definitely looks better than the first time. We should have stayed out of the wind the first time we plasti-dipped haha. Nice work bro.

    I'm also wondering what the major difference is between the 2. I've heard about hydrolock, but I'm wondering what my chances are with either intake, so if anyone has dealt with this kind of stuff in the past, your help is greatly appreciated :D

    And to make things better, they fixed the keyed/scratched part of my left rear quarter panel by mistake, so they threw it in for free! Here's the photo:
