Re: My old 98SS engine compartment... LMAO!!!!
I was going to put a bunch of stickers on the underside of the hood too since I ran out of room on the radiator support... Like Moroso, Iskendarian, Offenhauser, etc... Stuff I don't have on the car.

Re: My old 98SS engine compartment... Cool I need one.
I might handpaint the hoodscoop and some interior panels with a brush, should I wash the panels first?

Re: My old 98SS engine compartment... I have to chime in here with a confession:
Father forgive me, I have sinned. I too had wire loom (yellow) on my car. It lasted for about 3 days. I actually went to the track once with it. I was embarrassed to open the hood in the staging lanes. I know all the f-body guys were laughing as they walked by.
Oh well, you live and learn. I am proud to say however that my car is sticker free!
