Hey PAZ don't bother they are a waste ans will only add weight to your car. I had them and found that they only hurt the way my TC3 handled. If you want blue then I suggest you take the diff cases you have and paint them Blue then seal them with an outdoor use clearcoat to protect the paint job. This upgrade (alum diff cases) is not a good one.

Your welcome,
I was hoping that others may also learn from my huge mistake and not get those diff cases unless you are going to do a (PIMP MY RIDE) car then by all means get them they are top notch quality and persistion, just heavy in comparision to grafite. Remember these diff cases are not broken that offten so justifing buying them for durability is also false. I have never broke a diff case on any car unless I step on them. LOL

Ohhhh... you're talking about the diff HALVES... not the housings...
The standard housings are fine, but if you're looking for more punch out of the corners, the aluminum or Delrin Halves will make a big difference... having steel in your rotating assembly is nuts... IMO...
They make aluminum housings because they know SOMEONE will buy them for the "Bling" factor...
