Default Fuel Rail Covers installed
Finally finished up my fuel rail covers and got them on the car. Feels good to get this one checked off my to do list.

Wait, maybe it would look even better with the radiator cover painted to match...and the surge tank...and the windshield washer tank....damn, one step forward three steps back.

Enjoy

Those look really great! Been thinking about doing mine, your pics are just more reasons to get to it. What about the flags, airbrush? Decals?

The flags are decals from an ebay vendor.

Looks great man....BUT... In knew there was a reason that I wasn't wild about that decal on there when you showed it first...I finally realized why....they look to much like this..

and me livin in Indy and being a Colts fan...well you get the point.

I am in the same boat as you. I am finishing up my fuel rail covers this weekend (hopefully) and am planning on doing the radiator shroud next.
