Cost is next to nothing, and I have been able to see what it will look like. Once I get off my lazy behind I am going to buy an XT boot, and have it sprayed. I'll keep the XR boot for if I ever sell the car and return it to stock. I have been quoted around $150 to $200 to have the holes gapped and sprayed, but then I cant return the car to standard, so I will probably end up going for the new boot option. As for the grommets, they are basically all a perfect fit, with the exception of one... but no water has got through yet, and I've tested it with high pressure hoses and all. Hope this helps!Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
