I like it a lot, somehow you've avoided that plastic look that some smoothed-over engine bays get, good work!

How a top class engine bay should look!

not overdone or busy with blingy bolt ons everywhere, just a nice combination of chrome and a few colours working with the paint colour! Looks wicked!

thanks peeps, im fangin to get it on the road. hiding the wiring wasnt that hard really. it took about a day and a half. the motor looks like it isnt connected there will only be two wires that can be seen (oil & temp)
im hoping to make it to gm owners day next weekend. it willbe in the GTR-XU1 club dispay, will see how i go lots of small jobs to do still.
