Default New FRC :)

these came in a couple weeks ago.. decided to post some pics, let me know what you think
They were custom painted light carmine red metallic (98-99 i believe vette color). They are pretty awesome, i think it will clean up the engine bay a lot along with painting the intake gloss black over the winter (griff if you are still interesed..)
thanks for looking

the FRC from afterthoughts auto.. i think they were $320 or something. the battery cover (and fuse box covers not shown) were done by http://www.thecheckeredflagstore.com, i think $80 with some left over paint to use..
