$5 Mod That Is Worth Doing

[zedman]

I think the greatest $5 upgrade for Xr's are the two lights in the foot wells.

Makes a truckload of difference

im still not sold that spraying painting the cooler is not going to effect the Efficiency of air flow

I doubt whether a bee's dick thickness of paint would make any difference to the efficiency of the air flow into the cooler though. If that were the case they wouldn't paint them at all.

And yes its an FPV badge, car now has the full Typhoon kit on it too and it looks bloody awesome.

I agree that its probably not going to make that much of a difference but still a diference never the less, taking into consideration how uselees these coolers are already!!

Also, I believe they use different paint than what is used in a spray can & secondly you are effectively doubling the layer of paint on the cooler.

Big Black ones are the go

Not that you can tell with the silver mesh hiding the Monza (Wog) cooler on mine.

Yeah big black ones are indeed, THE way to go

That looks great, were you able to get the bottom lights back in??

I think it looks great without them

[RAP1D]

Yeah they go back in... I dropped one while the bar was off, but on the plus side, lots of air gets into the airbox and cools the pipe on the otherside
