Hey I decided to strip the crappy black paint on the hood vent and it turned out looking pretty good. Easy to do and only cost me $4.99 from schucks. PM me with questions if you have any.

SCROLL DOWN FOR WORKING PICS!

 

not working...

 

My question is...............how can I view the links? I cant see anything.

 

i havent done a thread with pics before. if anyone tells me how i got 4 good pics

 

fixed em for you





looks good, how did you do it? just use some paint stripper?

 

Beat me to it!

 

Looks nice!!

 

Time and driving did that to my car for $0.00

 

hey thanks for fixing my pics. yah just took off the vent and laid it out in the sun and sprayed a good quantity of the paint stripper on, left for 10 mins then wearing gloves or it burns, scrape off and rinse with highest power on my hose. dont use anything but a cloth or gloves to scrape. be sure to rinse off all the residue, i recommend doing a little spot on the bottom to see how it looks.

 

Did you clear-coat it afterwards??

 

This is a Hood Vent Mod?? How much hp do you get out of this?

 

No because it shouldnt rust since it is stainless steel, if you ever took chemistry you would know but if it does rust or something just strip the stuff off again then clear coat it but as of 5 hours ago it hasnt rusted in my garage

 

humm i did something like that i sanded mine and sprayed it with flat black grill paint good to 1200 degrees. looks like the factory but ten times better and doesnt fade.

 

Looking good.

 

i did this with 450 miles on my car, at 3400 it had spotted due to not clearing it so i painted it silver
