Looking at some of the previous posts here- I follow a similar thought process of how a car should be.

I have a black Firehawk with chrome rims and some Corsa clone tips. It's clean... now when I pop the hood people freak out.

It's definately like a jewelry container... looks clean with a very signifcant suprise inside.

Very classy in my opinion.

You've got a very exotic engine bay... keep it very clean and go straight for the turbo you've been wanting. ~Joshua

I think the red makes it look cheap. Just pull all the badges off.
