Salt is the worst, I'm from Ohio, seen the effects...
Had to torch the trailer hitch off of my Hellcat because of 3 salty winters.
(Anyone ever have to say that before?)

Sorry @Bull… I could only justify the HC if I could still tow my trailer, and drive it in the winter. I wonder where that car ended up…

Sounding like the black graphics are vinyl decal and NOT paint. Expensive decals if true. People that have taken delivery aren't happy. Price aside vinyl is probably easier to care for?

Yep he lives by me. Hung out with him a few times. The demon was bought over by detriot. He had them put the winter tires on for the drive home. May have been January and was snowing. His truck business is 10 minutes from where I work

They are suppose to be painted

The panels are taped off
Sanded
Sprayed

Not sure if someone thinks the small step / taped off lip is vinyl ?
Or
They switched to a wrap ?

There have been some pictures posted online that show vinyl installed on the hood. There will be some upset customers when they find out this detail, and rightfully so, they charge an insane price for vinyl that won't hold up as good over time as paint.

I find the satin black paint easier to care for than vinyl. And vinyl will dry out if a car is always parked outside in the sun, I doubt many Demon 170's will live outside, but the fact that vinyl won't hold up over time is still a downside to it.

Could you imagine the mass production
Tape line on the hood if it were paint?
