Do the new P+10's have the airflow cap? I can't tell in these pics.

Too small for airflow slots

Reactor fits this 350 so well

Homage to vaptamist.

Looking good! Can't wait for mine to get here

I think he would.

Lol, it does look like one of Vap's pics indeed.

Yes we do. And it looks KILLER on the P+500 if I do say so myself...The outer diameters are almost a perfect match, and b/c the center pin on the DID is adjustable, you can get it to sit totally flush with the P+. Jim also now offers it in a brushed finish, which I think matches the brushed look on the P+s pretty well, but you can always sure it up with a little 400 grit if you're willing to get a little DIY on your gear

Thanks, mini did on the way. Polished, though, I think. Upon further research, this is supposed to be the cat's meow of rba's so I think my setup will be awesome sauce once I get over the learning curve. Cheers~ I'm not British.

A little dinged up, but works great!

So I'm now a member of the P+ family, scored a nice P+ 18350 in a trade. Slapped on a Prive tank while I wait on the VPX tank in the mail. The Prive on the P+ doesn't look half bad, if I do say so myself. Sorry for a not so great pic.

Stupid question but how would I get that "shiny shiny" look (like the new caps). I mean like chrome, I know polish and maybe a dremel is involved? Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Go to a local machine shop and ask if they can polish it for you... Thats the only way you can get that mirrored chrome effect...

no need to involve a machine shop as long as you have the right tools: some polishing compound and buffer with the correct buffing pads you would start with a more abrasive pad and work to a finer pad, but then again if your not confident in doing it your self i guess a machine shop would be the way to go. I gave mine a semi-polish using 400/800/1200 grit wet sand paper, then used red scotch bright, then used a one step polishing compound using the medium abrasive pad as described befor. you can see the finish in post #831

I should throw a word of caution in regarding polishing, especially using a rotary type tool to polish it. On the top of the unit, where the cap threads in, Due to the threads being cut in on the inside, the material is very thin there and everytime you polish, you are removing material which could eventually wear through.

Hand polishing with a polishing compound and a soft rag wouldn't be a problem, but any abrasive type wheels could lead to problems down the road. It is further compounded if you are trying to take a satin prepared tube and polish it down, as the satin tubes you have to remove even more material to get it shiny.

Personally, i don't recommend polishing, other then with a soft cloth and some polishing compound, like mothers polish or the like.
