Default CAS Sheet Metal looks... Dig it??

Do you guys like the sheet metal look on the CAS kits??? I am still no sure if it makes the turbo kit look fancy under the hood or cheap. I have a pic but it's too big to put on here.. Someone want to post it and decrease the file limit on the pic??? PM me

I painted mine -- everything under my hood is black anyway. Noyzee's polished/mirror one was VERY nice!!!

personally i always liked the hidden through a lid type look. take the stock bellows and cut em up to still fit so you cant really see any of the pipe. that way if u find a person thats as dumb as a rock with a lot of $$ and no ls1 experience you can give him a BIG surprise.
