Daytime Car and Engine Bay Pics!!! Well finally got around to getting some daytime pics, the front wheels look dirty from brake dust but i had just cleaned them a couple days ago which sucks, the chrome really shows the dust badly, i also need to get some side profile pics but these are good ones. My paint is probably going to get some sort of 2 tone pin stripe to help break up the black and orange some more and kinda of go against the harley look...not a bad thing just want to seperate it a bit more. Probably going to do either stainless PONTIAC letters and corsa style tips down the road and finally it needs to be wet sanded and buffed out.
Engine bay has a few things left, im getting some FRC's soon and a stainless radiator support, both of which will definitely add to the appearance, i also plan to eventually relocate my battery. Cowl will be cleaned up and painted and my intake bolts wich i stupidly ground all the zinc coating off of are going to be replaced...probably with stainless bolts so they dont rust like they are doing now. Let me know what you guys think

i really REALLY like what youve done with that! the colors are perfect together and you dont see many engine bays done in a glossy color, that took a lot of time im sure. all i would do would be to black out the rear tail lights with VHT, tint the windows, remove the side moldings, and get some new tips maybe like the GMMG ones or something. verrry nice!

really the only things i would change have been said...
well maybe if you had the cash a nice set of twins to pretty up the engine bay a bit more
looks wise though the car is gorgeous!

beautiful car, wheels, and stance are perfect. If you wanna get rid of brake dust buy some high quality brake pads, which are metallic or ceramic pads which cut down on brake dust
