I've seen your pics before, thats a very nice job. When I test fitted mine the braided fuel line did a number on the edges of the slit. I hope you dont experience the same, but its a simple fix if you do.

I was planning on putting some painters tape on the edges before the install.

Hopefully that will work.

This look great, a couple of years ago I painted everything pewter in my engine bay to mach the car, with the except of the intake manifold in black. I recently purchased a new LS6 manifold maybe it's time for a reverse color change Thanks for posting up.
