heres the little devil

 

Mine is meridian metallic; it is like a silver with a slight red tint. Looks "pewter" is how people describe it, but it changes depending on the lighting. Not a super common color. It is one of those love it or hate it things.

 

The "little devil" looks great! I love the slant nose cars. A friend of my father had a turbo one many years ago, may still have it, took me for a ride and I thought it was the fastest car in the world

 

Is there a version that covers the fog light completely and just leaves the main headlight exposed?

 

yes. they have them on ebay. but it might cause fitment issues. the only ones i've seen affixed with adhesive eventually begin to lose adhesive properties and don't remain "flush" owing presumably to the curvature of the headlamps. also, dont try the ones with the nozzle bit covered although it appears to look ok on the op's car.

i imagine if these aren't regularly exposed to the elements they have a better chance of staying properly *stuck*.

 

Did they paint the washer covers as well?

 

this is the best silicone glue i have ever used we build custom homes and we have tried many expoxys on the market and this brand works as far as the elements if you have a car like this it should be in agarage every night my cars have never seen rain period and yes wepainted the washer covers the secret to make the eye lids form is to heat them up and secure them to the lights before you install with silicone and worse case if they do come loose fish string will cut the silicone and you can re glue no big deal john

 

hey bud respect what you say i have read your commets on other things and you seem to know what your talking about that said what other way short of tape could you install them or have you seen them installed another way thanks for your advice John

 

yes we painted the washers scoffed up the chrome and used aprime coat and some porsche black that any paint shop can put in a can just did it for adifferent look kinda like it and the company was great to work with thanks for looking john

 

that makes sense to me.

i'm no certainly expert when it comes to glue. i was merely reporting on what i have seen of them on cars, longer term.

though i don't necessarily agree that old porsche's need to be garaged but i do agree, it's nbd either way.

 

i defer to your expertise john. as i just noted, i was merely reporting on my limited anecdotal experience having seen them on others' cars. i have no direct experience with them myself. given the attention you seem to understandably lavish upon your vehicles, i'm sure you'll have no issues with them.

love the slant nose btw. cheers.

 

thanks man we found out that weather tech uses the same adhesive on their mud flaps and sun roof vents the adhesive is oci silicone from oci americas and they do make aspray on remover that makes the silicone soft for removal thanks again for your advise john

 

Another way to do it is like this. A couple of years ago when my trans was out to be built and get a LSD installed was messing around on mine. Taped them off then put down 5 layers of plastic dip then use real Seal Grey paint and clear coat on top of that. Tested it first on a old washer cap let it all dry then pealed it off. Didn't expect to keep it on this long but it's actually held up really well. The nice thing is it doesn't look like a cover.

 

hey bud great idea ithought about painting mine too or as an after thought having awrap put on it but great idea looks good thanks for checking it out john

 

@z06 that looks great too, but i think i'd miss my fogs ( not that they do much )

but what happens if you accidently pull the washer stalk at speed? mine was like a mini flying saucer i'll never do THAT again ha. will the nozzle "win" over layers of plastidip is the question..
