Cool SOM Painted Intake & Coil Packs "Installed"
I finished up the install of my newly painted parts about 1-2 weeks ago, finally getting the pics online. I went to a local car show this past Sunday and my new mods seem to be a big hit with the judges and passer bys. I took home another trophy, "Top 60" out of 131 cars entered.

Enjoy!

That looks tight. I like! Nice job to the painter. I love that color. I hope one day I can repaint my car to that color.

Thanks for all the kind words and comments, it really means a lot!

All the shiny metal parts are chrome except for the TB, A/C Dryer and PS cooler.

I feel that it's still missing something though. I am going to chrome the radiator/bumper brackets, the rest of the head light brackets, & the ABS bracket.

I was thinking of painting the light grey plastic radiator support black with a flat or semi gloss clear.

If you could tweak anything else, what would you guys do?
