i don't mind it. it looks like a good product and helps solve a problem. and if nrw design provided them to him- that is brilliant marketing. look at how many views that video has and what kind of people would watch it... now the word is definitely out. i didn't feel like he was pushing them, either.

that being said, i'd keep the oem magnesium covers as well, mostly to keep the weight down... but at the same time, its a common to upgrade the dct pan to slon or fall line. its definitely heavier than the plastic pan, but solves an issue. its at the lowest part of the car, so not much guilt there.
