You can see that I took off the radiator cover and painted it black, the front bumper attachment support and painted it NBM (they're usually gray and dingy) and painted the hood release bracket black too. I also relocated all visible grounds.
I also rerouted the TCS wire harness, retied and rerouted the harnesses coming from the PCM. Cleaned up the passenger side shock tower brace quite a bit. Did the !wire mod, but didn't have the clearance for the harnesses because the front's dropped so much.

I dust my stuff off everyday, clean the well parts and polish all the metal once a week. To paint.... its all in the prep, sanding, more sanding, prime, sand prime etc. then spray and clear

im not a paint expert, im sure someone else will chime in, use some type of remover to get all the gunk out of places, i covered my electrical stuff when i first got the car and hosed it down to clean most of it up and thenkept it clean by detailing

I seem to recall seeing this car last summer at a car show
at a NMCA even in Martin, MI.

Do the "Honda guys" say, keep those flames for the mullet-riddled Camaro crowd? If they do, doesn't that make them idiots?
What about all of that fricken chrome? Isn't that just gawdy "bling-bling" bullshit? Shouldn't that and any sort of airbrushing just be for low-riders or the Dub crowd?
I say people do what they want and damn the critics!
Let's see more pix.

Yesterday's news. Car was nice but it inspired a lot of people to do even better. It's not the holy grail of FBody engine bays anymore.
