Default Re: Added a little bling to the engine bay.

Thanks for all the responses.

I hate the mismatched bolts, but they are a bit of a necessity for now. I recently received a set of E55 bolts that I intend to use as replacements for the non-oem bolts in the photos. As for the Ferrari comments (180) I'd be more than happy to put one in it's place at the 1/4. Any other type of racing against one and I'd be the one weeping for sure.

The color of the mani's is a close match to my calipers, so I thought it would work out okay. They aren't an exact match, but I'm okay with that. The engine bay was as boring and uneventful as a Fiero, so it's just nice to have something going on under the hood finally.

After I install the valve covers this weekend, I'll post up photos of the completed (for now) project.

Truth be told, if I'm not happy unless I'm modding the car.

By the way, I'm going to wait a few days before sanding down the lettering, as it's not easy to undo.
