cleaned up the engine bay (hid wires, painted stuff)
Did the !passenger wire mod, hid all the grounding wires, took off all the stickers, tags, decals, and painted the valve covers, throttle body, and MAF. Also painted the nose support satin black.
Tell me what you think. And I know, I know, I need some FRCs. Carbon fiber ones are coming in time to go with the lid.

Looks very One thing you might think about moving is the air filter for the smog pump. I cut the hose way back and it's down low where you really have to look to see it.
Keep up the good work.

Joe DIESO - I painted it satin black or "Low Gloss Black" (DE1634) made by Duplicolor from Autozone.
TransAm1313 - I just used high temp paint from Autozone, the spray can type. I did not sand any of the parts. I just cleaned them all off really well with CarbCleaner. Then I primered (three coats), painted (three coats), then clearcoated (three coats again). And what you see is what you get.

Looks nice and clean. Like Steve said, get some of those brackets chromed, or pull out a polishing wheel and go to town. It will really clean it up even more.. The AC condensor looks so much better when polished. Give it a shot!
