That's one thing I don't like about a lot of the other intake systems, they don't have a surround like the Injen does to block off at least some of the hot air.
I just got one from ebay and it has fish eyes in the paint. Not terrible but not good enough for a $70k vehicle. The letters arent spaced properly either, the directions say to space the letters and get them even before applying the top film, lame.
I just got mine from eBay last night. Definitely not the best finish. I went ahead and put about 3 coats of clear and they look great now.
For spacing I used painters tape to mark off the factory chrome emblem location and spacing. Went on perfectly with ease. I will commend the ebay badge for being the exact size of the oem badge though.
I have something "special" planned for the altitude rear jeep badge that is on the way...
I emailed JustforJeeps inquiring about the rear SRT badge but they responded yesterday saying it wasn't in the catalog yet.
I agree on the eBay one, I ordered it as well and the finish was not up to my standards and it is now stuck on my garage wall. I sanded and painted an OEM emblem, looks pretty good but I'm still going to buy the OEM black one once released.
Great, I look forward to hearing from you on how easy it was or wasnt. Id like my window trim blacked out but havent figured out how to get it done yet. I cant bring myself to spray plasti dip on a $70k new car yet.
OK, slow progress but here is the updated pics of my rig
Installed The Shadowline Trim in Gloss Black... Very easy to work with, requires a bit of patience and a bit of skill to get around the big curve in the lower rear piece... Durable so far, much better looking than the plastidip look I had...
I'm also thinking of using the Shadowline vinyl to black out the window trim on my 2015 Altitude. Were you able to work around the curved corners with just the window vinyl or did you need to cut larger pieces of the roof vinyl to fit those sections? I'm assuming the window and roof material is the same.
