Polished Eurocode FMIC?

[FINA4]

I just spoke with Dave@Ecode and he told me that I could get my FMIC also polished i.e. not the typical radiator color. Does anybody have pictures of that and is it worth to pay extra $75.00 for that?

I have an UltraSport bumber so anyway it will cover most of the FMIC...

I don't have any pictures but I have seen it in person and it looks amazing. I am going to take mine out just to have it polished. Totaly worth it in my opinion!

still for that price its a bargain. every other FMIC out their is over a grand. i have one on my A4 and its awesome. the price is reasonable and well worth it.

fits right into the ultrasport bumper

i passed one up from david..told him to get me one polished with lowered endtanks to fit my rieger but unfortunately i didnt have the cash for it in hand so i told him ill tell him in the future when i was ready.. heres a polished ecode FMIC behind US bumper.

left car..

im still waiting for my email or phone call when my turn on the waiting list comes up...

Is that the normal "color" i.e. not the polished one? Did you notice a big difference on hot temparatures? Also difference in a temperature around +60'F?

Thanks for all the information!

i think that is the normal color, or at least the one i bought. the diff in temps are noticable. you can feel your car getting less of a heat soak.

Welcome! Seen a lot more people from SD on here lately. Represent.

I say go with the polished. Though, I imagine it will be a pain to keep it nice and shiny.

It's about 11" x 18", maybe slightly larger. Compared to stock SMIC at 8" x 10". And I haven't experienced any coolant temp increases.

large FMIC's arent necessarily a better thing.
