It's not worth the extra price to me. The Ventus V12s have been great. I just need to rotate properly when running neg. camber.

Let me see how it turns out with plastidip first and if I don't like the way it looks then I'll get it professionally done by you.👍

Yeah is fairly easy, the only difficult part is the lettering. Heres a better pic of it installed

Looks really good man! Any tips or secrets on doing the lettering, or did you just spray the whole thing and then carefully peel off the plasti dip over the words?

Is plastidip safe with that kind of heat?

I sprayed the entire cover, then when it dried I took a box cutter and carefully cut out the lettering

It works on wheels and wheels get hotter than an engine bay. But it doesn't have a temp rating also.

Nice setup, but all I seem to think is HEAT SOAK with that intake.

What do you recommend besides the Super Sports? I wanted to replace my stockers with better tires, bump up to 225/45's

Thanks,
