Thank you!
I know the deal and didn't mean to offend, but my goodness, it's been bad with the same few guys.

Thanks for the support!

I think it looks awesome, I wouldn't buy it, but I can see why someone would.

Same goes for that Kona Blue painted one, that's equally awesome.

I really really want this thing. I have to see if there is some way to transfer the chrome over. I like the carbon with chrome accents. The 5.0 is a must, but it'd be nice to finish it all off with those half moons. I might have to take a trip to pick-n-pull and see if I can find one.

Every one of my Mustangs has had a JLT intake, and I can't wait to buy a colormatched CAI for my 2011. So no, you weren't wrong.
^^^ agree. I just purchased a JLT oil separator a couple days ago. I would have NEVER thought about buying one of these if not for you and the people on these forums.

Don't let a couple of bad apples spoil the bunch.
(Or on a Mustang forum would it be more like "don't let the Mustang II spoil the Mustang legacy" )

The factory pieces will not fit, but some chrome vinyl from a graphics shop may be the best trick

Tucker... I think you offer some awesome products!

I'm saving up towards the the engine cover and radiator cover you offer.
I've seen the radiator cover with logo and without logo (Trucarbon), how is yours coming?

Just for my understanding, could you please explain what the difference is between Hydro-Carbon and Carbonfiber? DIfference in look?

Thanks for your help and assistance?

No stickers come on it
Hydrocarbon is a paint process to make parts look like carbon, this is real carbon

It's very nice, I like it. I have to wait and see which blower and/or intake I'm going with before I buy something I may have to sell down the road.

looks nice. specially for the price.

is there a way to only get a certain part of the cover treated with teh carbon? I want to get mine painted as close to the candy metallic red as possible but I only want to get the main parts on the side painted not the raised up and central part. If I can get that part carbon but the rest left alone to be painted, that would work well for me.

you don't "treat" with carbon fiber. The whole part is made from it. It's a building material like plastic, metal, glass, or fiberglass, not a sticker or paint. You can get this one and paint it the way you like it leavng some carbon exposed like some people do hoods.
