Engine bay. Before & After. A LOT of time has gone into this engine bay. Although it doesn't look like it there has. I did some polishing on the ac canister, brake lines, Power steering cooler, STB which was red before & the tb. Then bought some other things along with some Specialized Stainless! His work is awesome! I bought this stuff back in Feb. and it still shines like new! Anyways here are the pics.
Before:
After: ... Pics didn't turn out very good.
ANY SUGGESTIONS??? Positive or Negative feedback is Welcome! Thanks for looking!

Looks good. I prefer a clean, solid color scheme which you've pulled off pretty well.
Stay with either black or chrome/polised and remember less is more. Instead of adding a bunch of stuff, try to do little things like hiding grounds, cleaning nooks and crannies, etc.

, That's what I thought too!Did it say "I'll show ya mine, if you show me yours" somewhere that I missed too?!?
(Edit: I guess it does say "ANY SUGGESTIONS".)
Anyway, back on topic, ..., Looks nice.
Nice improvement, but still more you can do to progress the package all the time, so you keep re-newing your interest!
Looks like a Hotchkis brand maybe?

Thanks guys! I would get a under hood mirror kit but 300 bucks for mirrors is just a little too steep for me. I still have to polish my MAF. Only other thing I am considering doing it having my intake powercoated black. There is a guy on here doing great work for a good price. Just can't decide if it is going to look good or not....

Looks kick ***.
Here is a suggestion.. I used some red wire loom to kinda accent the color of the car onto the motor. Yeah I know some of it is faded. Got that pack for free from a buddy who forgot he had it in his garage, altho it was left under a window in direct sunlight. Used red over black and used black wire loom over the red inner fenders. If you found some grey wire loom that might spruce it up a bit.
