I like what you did with the hood vents. I might get an extra set and treat them to some black plasti-dip.

Thanks, but there's no need to get an extra set. The beauty of P-D is that if you don't like it, it peels off

Maybe I should spray some P-D stripes on mine instead of getting vinyl stripes. If I get tired of them, they should peel right off?

They do. Just wait for it to dry and it peels off if you don't like it

Lol ... I used a Dremel with a cutting tool ...

You wanna make sure you cut next to a mounting hole, as seen in the pic below.
Measure 15 times, Cut once

Not fully yet. I still have some vibes at about 95-110 or so
I only turned the shaft 90 degrees at the front when I did it. Spoke with DSS and they said they normally turn them 180 degrees, so I want to turn it 90 more degrees and re-torque the bolts (I actually want new bolts) and re-test
