Not too shabby. I prefer the polished look but I'd say well done just the same.

not bad, but would have been a bajillion times better if you had used blue instead of red.

I am wondering why you went with red when your car is blue? Are you just looking for it to stand out more with the red?

I don't get why so many carmakers are throwing plastic all over the enginebay these days. What happened to a clean, polished looking ENGINE!

I can understand that. I'm more subtle though.


P.S. I am not saying what you did looks bad. It looks good. I was making a rant about all car companies and the heavy use of plastic in the enginebay. If you want to see an engine with plastic, look at a new GTO.

^looks good I didnt think you were. 10 years ago there was no plastic in the engine, it was EASY to modify and take apart is it just me or is everything on the balts a bitch to take off and fit thing around in them
