Default little engine bay dress up!!pics

i wanted to get the bolt kit from yofab but i couldnt bring myself to spend $200 on bolts.. so i went through and got all sizes i needed and ordered from fastenal.. even got more than what their kit supplies.. installed today.. i am still gonna polish them up.. but here are the results, i am gonna order some bigger washers bc the ones i got were just alil to small.. and this cost about $40 shipped!!!

Looks good! Another thing I would do is paint that dull grey plastic support piece by the hood latch to match your car. I would think about painting the windshield wiper reservoir as well!

I think as long as it's not that dull grey color it would look great! Black is a great color choice lol

anti seize keeps stainless/metals from corriding and making it hard to get out when you go to remove.
