I actually have the same issue with one little spot on my SSW 3 inch. I got some heat coating and wrapped a small rubber portion of an old CAI I had and made a noise reduction piece, or did some shade tree mechanics stuff to make sure there wasn't metal on metal. Which ever term you prefer.

Is that the reproduction saleen hood or the real one? Curious because i'm sort of considering the repro version since it's about half the price.

Canon T2i with a Sigma 8-16mm lens. They're HDR renders. this is straight from the camera with no processing or enhancing. (though on stock suspension)

Lighting angle and how much sun is hitting the paint along with what angle you're shooting from are a BIG factor with the candy metallic.

Thumbs up Steeda Sports

Here is one more with Steeda Sports - 1" Front, 1 1/4" Back.

I've had a few encounters with high centering coming out of driveways that have a sharp decline. No damage as I can tell but made one heck of a noise. The front lower plastic deflector will scrap when I back out of my driveway if I don't back out really slow. I am glad I did not drop any more. Ride is good, nose dive is gone. Best improvement I think was the Tokico D-Specs that made it stop riding like a buck board.
