Cutting off the two small rings... maybe. The big ring... you're not going to cut it off without fucking up the whole housing.

I'm calling bull fucking shit on this recommendation.
oh snap ..... there is no way in hell you can do that shit .. plus i think that epoxy will look like crap anyways... u say it could be done .. PROVE IT .. lets see some pix

anyone got a chain store taht carrys it ? *pepboys or autozone or strouss??
or do u guys have a pic of the stuff, how it looks like ?

thanx
I looked at Oreillys, Autozone and Advance Auto. Advance is the only one that had it. It was around $20 for the roll. Most Advance Auto's have their store layouts pretty identical... it should be over on the isle with the silicone, and gasket maker, and all that shit, on the bottom shelf.

It's a pretty large roll... that's a standard size flathead in the pic:

Here's a few pics with the Duplicolor Storm Grey applied.

Notice in the second and third pics that the triangle shaped metal piece under the middle ring is the oem grey... everything else is storm grey. It's almost an identical match.

I'm not the greatest rattle-can painter. Bare with me...
