well since so many of you were painting ur *****, i decided to hit mine up for a quick touch up, this is not the final coating, as i ddint bother to make it all perfect, i will working on installing another header on the car, so as you know they go in thru the top, and they never go in with out taking some paint and blood with them, but here's what i did...will be finished once i decide which header/dp combo is better for my car

Yeah I gotta agree, it took me a while to figure out just exactly what angle that shot was. Looks cool, but you cant put makeup on a pig and call it pretty, clean up that engine bay. like now.
