No i'm not gonna do the wire mod. I know i'm the odd ball out on this one,but I don't like how the wire mod looks. I'm not a huge fan of the wires either...but they'll have to do till a better idea comes along.Thank you though.

Hey thanks, just wanting to get opinions. The base I had painted here locally & the lid and frc's were done by Pontiacfan.

i like the attention to detail on the intake. was it professionally sprayed?

i agree about the wheels, look killer. i saved the picture

now you just need to delete those side moldings and badges

Looks great. I'd suggest painting the intake to really set things off!

I don't like the holes left behind, I don't like the big HUMP either that's left behind lol.It's to much fender well for my liking. I know there's no better option that's why there still there. If I come up with a mod i'll be rich.

Lookin' good man, ...,
Ya really need to back that thing outta the garage & get a full underhood photo from a ladder or something!

Remind everyone, what kind/size are the wheels again?!?
(We were looking to get some Beyern 5's like that for our 330Ci. I really like the nice thin five-spoke design, ..., & the polished/plated lip.)
