Has anyone seen these knob covers in Carbon Fiber or Black? I've only found Red or Blue.

I'd love to find these in black or dark silver (Smoked?) Do they just slip on? Maybe could be sprayed with plastic paint? Agree that the set of 4 is needed!

You're right, they just slip on. Mine were a little loose, so I stuck a little duct tape inside them and now they're solid.

1st I had an Intervention..(Heavenly or other-wise)... I was reaching for my Cleaners on the shelf getting the headlights ready for the vinly overlay..my can of Performex Plasti Dip fell on to the bench!! then I had an epiphany ....why not just paint the tops of the lights instead of Matte vinyl??......so I did!! It hid the adjusting screws as well and matches all under hood plastic perfectly!!! I now consider my Under Hood area complete!!

[MENTION=15232]Voo Doo[/MENTION] Just curious, does the plasti dip block the light that shines in the gap between the hood and fender?

Ha, no evidence is needed for me. :) I didn't know if it would or not, haven't used the plasti dip before. :cheers:
I did 3 Coats.....I should have done 4! I painted my windshield washer reservoir gooseneck with it as well. Light coats waiting 30 min between coats. Easy-peasy! It’s actually Performex...not Krylon!! DUH!! great product!

I missed it, but thanks for the heads up. There's likely to be another sale for the 4th of July, right?
Maybe but likely not, apparently it ties in to their quarters to boost numbers.

Sound deadener / roadside kneeling pad. One $5.00 72" x 80" heavy duty moving blanket will make two pads. Binding around the edges would make for a nice finish. I'm considering them as a one-time use especially if laid on wet ground, grass burs, etc... so I didn't bother binding the edges. The Ford all-weather mat fits great over the top of the blanket.
Nice!

Hey, I just wanted to point this out for "Cheap and easy". The Steeda and whiteline Trans bushing is a cheap and easy mod. I think we all realize they are made in the same factories with the same molds. @ only $40 it's a pretty cheap thing to afford but there are companies online that sell the non-branded version for $20.

Have you installed this insert? When I purchased my Energy Suspension shifter bushing I contemplated getting the transmission insert as well, but a lot of members posted about a lot a added NVH after the install. Some resulted in drilling holes in the insert to lessen the harshness.
