Don't paint it with any sort of "textured" paint. I have one a guy gave me. He tried to use that wavy paint on to hive it some texture and it came out like CRAP. I got it off of him to use as a template if I ever get around to designing my own. I found a brand-new in box stock one that never had any stickers placed on it at an NMRA race. I bought it to put on my car, but I'm holding off until I too can figure out what I want to do with the piece. They're like $60 from ford.

:bs: :bs: ...The curves create turbulance in the voltage flow and reduces HP.. :rolleyes:

Straight SP wires ROCK!! :nice:

Keith:
The Power steering pump sleeve is from Steeda..(theyre nearby).
Joe (VibrantRedGT) helped me polisht the coil bracket and that piece with the 2 bolts that holds the pulleys in the front.

Here is a more recent pic which shows:

1. I lost the CAP to the PS pump Sleeve :bang: (came off at WOT)
2. Replaced Chrome STB.
3. Better angle of the nasty shroud.

I am not really into spending $200 for that piece. I would rather paint it up and put a few pieces of decor on it.

Since theyre smaller, You need to have a cleaner (meaning less cluttered) area in the front, around the radiator.

Although my engine bay looks nice, there is still a lot of clutter in it, if that makes sense. The black cover hides a lot of stuff. Plus the chromes are expensive. I think just a subtle looking nice stock one is ok!

Thanks

(check out the chrome cowl cover)


I painted the letters and took a pic. Right now, it looks :notnice: because I gotta tape up around the letters and spray it with Fusion Black.. I actually just got that same decal, but the pony is facing the other way.
We'll see how it looks!
