Where do you order those parts from and do they have Crystal Red? What's involved, how much does it cost, and how much time did it take you? It looks awesome as I would like to do something like that. Did you get the oil, radiator cap from the same place?

Thanks in advance for your reply

The engine caps are from me www.nakidparts.com you will find many engine dressup items.

just some example, my caps are GM OEM caps that have been re-engineered and bonded to the cover for life
