So, when ya gonna tackle the !wire mod? Looks really good. Only thing I would do different is taking off the AC cover and polishing it. That's a very clean engine bay man!!

Why does your build number have 2 of 195. I know there were way more than that in 2001? Unless you are referring to the color which would seem a little deceiving.
