Not too much, but I wouldn't add to much more fake braided hose covers.JMHO. You should polish the plenum and runners. :cheers:

Nope, so far, very tasteful :yesnod:

What I can't stand is painting every piece of plastic that can be removed from the car. Not that the first thousand or so didn't look bad, it's just that I see it all of the time now. It's unique, like everyone else!

You should polish the runners. It improves the looks so much its unbelievable. You've already got some nice looking valve covers otherwise I'd say get some polished aluminum ones.

used to have some, but they got toasted on the manifold, talk about a light show. Haven't had a chance to order up some new ones yet, so for now its auto zone bosch wires.

THANK YOU, yes I have done the polishing myself, and being the **** person I am I couldn't just polish it, I had to block sand it until there were no low spots with 2200 grit sand paper :crazy: so I have about 15 hours in the top of the plenum and bracket.
