Hey Guys..

thought i would post some pics of my engine bay (almost finished)

i had the car at mania getting the major service done so i got david to fit all my new silicone hoses.. i also bought a small set of hoses to do the radiator overflow, oil breather etc.. and while i was there i purchased a Greddy oil cap and polished air diversion plate

the yellow top gun leads are on the way and then it will be totally done.. well the engine bay at least :D

hope everyone likes it.. feel free to let your true feelings out im all for constructive criticsm :)

please note photos were taken at night so it doesnt do it justice! (will post daylight ones when i get a day off)

Gee Ajay, that's very er er Yellow, just kidding, looks good. I'm just glad I'm not the poor bastard working on it trying not to get oil on any of those yellow hoses. Now I know why you wanted some much chrome polish, try and get a bulk buy.

i appreciate the effort mate. looks good...

it would look so nice if you replaced some of the chrome things for black...black and yellow work so well together ie: rocker cover black

it looks tops though, good effort

I thought it was pretty shinny at the dodgy day, but you managed to make it sparkle even more...........
