Default Engine Compartment Bling

Spring is still a ways off so for therapy, I added some new "shiny stuff" under the hood. Nothing like a little anticipation for good weather to satisfy the Corvette Fever. Pics? You bet.
WARNING!
You may need your sun glasses.
When Spring does get here, I am planning to paint the valve covers.

Default More Bling

For some reason, I could only upload 3 photos at a time so here is another photo. I may have to do them one at a time because when I upload more than one, it cancels the previous one out.
Hmmmm
