i think its pretty cool. I painted mine red. But you should have removed the egr hose before you painted it. Now you should replace it with a black one. It will look better and not like you just painted over everything. Other then that i think it looks pretty cool.

We pained a 305 grabber green that we tossed in an S-10 and it looks nice with chrome. However, chrome keeps in heat, so don't use chrome, used polished alu. You might catch flak from people if you paint your GM car Ford Grabber Green :\

Nice knife, I like it
