Shining up my engine bay
Shining up my engine bay I'm taking a lot of stuff apart and cleaning it up, removing unnecessary things, adding a few new things, and spicing it up a bit. Here is the work from the beginning. I'll add more pics as work is completed.
Here's the MAF ends polished up. I was really suprised at how shiny they got with a little elbow grease
In this picture, the rear part had not been polished yet. Pretty nice difference I think
Some of the support pieces for the bumper, headlights, and hood latch getting cleaned, primed, primer sealer, paint, and clear coat. They are about 1/2 way done right now. Almost ready for paint.

I'm nearly finished with a few of the pieces. Gonna let them set overnight and clear them tomorrow.
*oh, and i didn't paint them on top of the engine...i just set them there for pics*
and here is the washer fluid resevior, ready for paint now.
....more pics coming tomorrow

I've never seen it either but that seems like a really good idea.

The painted pieces look really good. I took the washer fluid one step further and just got rid of it, lol. It will really clean up the engine bay and draw your attention to what really matters; the engine!!
