Could be to protect from salt and corrosion. I don't blame him really, that sh!t pisses me off.

Having a car costs money.. Paint included! By doing this! it really makes you look cheap. Seriosly the painters tape cant take that much ubuse anyway.. The paint will still be chipped. If this is really something these guys burn for, they could Get some vinyl or something, that would atleast make it LOOK right.

I dont see anything wrong with people doing this, it's cheap and pretty effective if your going on a long road trip and want to minimize rock chips.

nah it just keep the header cooler ;) as it is my strut bar blocks the header opening and that vent piece isnt there. so prettymuch all the scoop does is poor ambient air, water and bugs right onto the valve cover

most shows i just wrap the flat front parts or areas where bugs/rocks hit most often. rairly do i ever do the whole front like that. I was just bored and had some tape left over ;)
