Ceramic hood.jpg

So i know there must be guys here that have done this in the past and I know there is no threads on it. It really looks amazing, but how is it holding up? I regrettably just coated mine after the first year and I wish I had done it from new. Forgive me for the pics as I have only taken pictures of single pieces and haven't put them on the sled yet and for thee orientation of the hood. It would not post the way I wanted no matter how many times I tried! Guess I should have mentioned if it's not obvious this is a side by side comparison on the side panels!

I did it day 2 of owning the sled. Plastics, tunnel, and the skid. It held up for several seasons. I did just the plastics last season (skid was a lot of work), looks like new again.
 
I also wrapped the center hood section with Vivid gloss black wrap. Looks MUCH better than the matt piece with injection mold nipples on it
 
I have always liked how hydrophobic the ceramic coating is, but the person who coated my truck turned me on to a product that turns it up a notch. I'll try to get my hands on it tomorrow and post.

I can't figure out for the life of me how to get pictures in the right orientation these days. I've tried flipping it every which way and resizing but it just turns it 90* every time! lol

Apparently the pictures need to be taken in landscape and not portrait
