Engine bay bling plus VE wheel
My engine bay is almost complete. I got additional parts (surge tank, washer tank, radiator cover) from American Hydrocarbon to compliment the FRC's. Thanks Pat. 
I picked up a carbon fiber power duct at a great discount through the corvette forum store. And I found a brake reservoir cover in the parts for sale forum. Thanks BaneZ06. I then added yellow silicone hoses from CCA to compliment the hydrocarbon and carbon fiber pieces. Thanks Chip. I love the look, I'm thinking of adding a polished SS alternator cover and then calling it done. I also added a Vette Essentials steering wheel to finish up my interior. I wanted it subtle, just yellow stitching so that it would match the stitching on my seats.

I have been thinking about the yellow silicone hoses my self,how is the color match to the Millennium Yellow?

Very nice! The new VE steering wheel is really nice. It even looks a little beefier than the stock OEM wheel.
Awesome bling

Thanks!
Thanks!
Loving the wheel too! Thanks! The engine bay really wasn't on my "to do" list this year but once I got started I couldn't stop. Thanks!

I like the hoses. I like the contrast and the yellow lettering on the FRC's. Hmmmm...I think I will call Chip for some blue hoses. The hydro parts look nice in there. The logo that you did for me is great! Thanks a bunch. I have the Carbon Fiber Intake cover for your car but you might want to wait for the BLACK CHROME one I will be rolling out next month.
