Default Wanna see what happens to POR-15 silver when exposed to UV?

Look at the left side where I did the !wire mod. The POR-15 silver has been on for around 4 months (I think) in this shot.

I did the mod and then welded all of my holes up. I also got rid of some lame K&N stickers the previous owner put on there. See the yellowish color around the window switch? That's the POR-15 silver.

Anyway, I didn't expect thsi stuff to look good. I just wanted it to prevent corrosion. I will be painting the engine bay black when I paint the car.

I figured some of you guys might want to see this stuff after it has been on for awhile.

Looks pretty bad eh?

I figured I'd give some of you Appearance guys the heads up.

I personally am not too worried about how the car looks right now but I know alot of you guys obviously are.

The instuctions say it's not good for direct sunlight. They sell a top coat also that is UV resistant.
