Hydra dipping

I wanted to give my engine compartment a bit of a face lift so after seeing some parts that had been hydra dipped I decided to try it. This is how it came out. Let me know what you think.

Very Very Cool... Did you get some sort of home kit to do those pieces?

I had a guy do all 4 pieces for $250. He ground the intake smooth then used a high build primer to get it slick after that was done he sprayed the base coat, dipped it in the CF print then sprayed everything with a few coats of clear.

It is good to 250 degrees. The guy that did it showed me a LS intake that he did on his Camaro 3 years ago and it still looked nice.

I like it. Can it only be done on metal or can it be done to plastic as well?

It can be done on plastic too Ryan. Lot's of guys are doing their LS intakes.
