Default Engine Bay Bling Finally
Finally getting started on me some "engine bay bling"!! Just got painted Fuel Rail Covers and Radiator Cover from AutoBuffs (great guy) and radiator/windshield tank and intake covers from C5 Creations (great guy) - dammit - now makes me HAVE to have more to cover up the remaining "ugly stuff" !! Looks like a long $$$$ haul from here!! FUN FUN FUN (and daddy already took my tbird away - sold it 5 month ago!!)
Hope ya'll like the "beginning"!!

AutoBuffs (Noel) is one of the first stops that most custom engine compartments should make. Then enhance everything with your "own groove"!! Chrome, Carbon Fiber, etc. Your engine looks K L!
