Wow, those look really sharp. How much did they cost you? I take it you relocated the coils to under the cowl? How easy was that?

I got the VC's from SDPC. I think they were about $125 each. The passenger coils are between the battery and the fender and the the driver's side are in the inner fender.

Thanks guys!!! I am going to build a pretty fun daily driver so I need something that is durable but looks sweet without polishing or scrubbin on all the time. Also I just bought the Wilson Billet Banks Intake so I would like it to match that well. Any tips would be sweet. Thanks again.

The Abear VC's would be sick with a Wilson Billet.

What the hell does that even mean? Bought the other whats? How the hell do you just jump into a thread and bash a sponsor with a post that doesn't even make sense? From what I've gathered people dig Nasty stuff on this site...

I hope the mods just delete that crap.

Those are what I have but had them anodized black. Been very durable so far, 1 1/2 seasons.
