Default New engine dress up kit

Well I finally got around to taking some pictures of my new engine dress up kit that I got from The VetteShop. All the pieces are painted the same colour as the car which is Navy Blue Metallic and I also add the chrome letters and pinstrips from Zip.

For a larger image just click on the picture

Very nice

Are you going to get one for the intake manifold? Blue? Chrome? That might be cool, too.

I will be getting a plenum in the future and am think of Navy Blue or Carbon Fiber plus I plan on getting a new air bridge probably a Carbon fiber one.

Thanks for the compliment Noel but mine is plain compared to Jon Pine, WGreen, CorvetteSSX and many other members.

I forgot this forum member until he posted in this thread which I think has one of the coolest engine bay on the forum and that would be Iceburgh here is link to some pics of his engine bay.

Iceburgh's engine bay
