exactly what i was going to say. i actually use tire shine, the oils bring out the fade, but its only temp. the screen tends to fall or loosen up and start vibrating. get some calking and dlue it up.
I have the hood. If its garage kept, it won't fade for a long time like mine. But I only had mine out for a few months and it faded badly now. But I had the hood for at least 4 years on before it started to fade, so I wasnt dissapointed.
But yo I got the rain guard for it. What you wanna pay?? Include shipping.
I never used it either, let the rain get in...nothing ever happened. For 4 years, nothing.
That would look pretty cool painted blue. The cool thing about your style hood is you'll be able to see the intercooler piping through the vents AND it's functional.
