to cold to install the grills right now lol but got the valve covers off and painted them red and painted the coil brackets black again to clean them up. pics of the cover tonight
Wow, that car is really nice. I am very envious. Keep up the great work. Very nice 1/4 mile time before the turbo I might add.
