Engine Bay PICS (Best Thread) - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

I was searching for a thread on engine bays, but none of the pics worked b/c imagestation and others dont allow hyperlinks anymore. So, If your proud of your engine bay please post a pic. PLEASE follow these simple rules.
1. Must include 1 hyperlink (that works) per post. (use www.photobucket.com for example)
2. No Attatchments please.
3. Please turn OFF your sig

update 26sept06!!!

about three things left to do, Pollished plenum, blue couplers for MAS, twin filters w/ pipes. (Updated)
*EDIT* oops forgot my own rule #3

Yeah I broke a rule, didn't turn off the sig. My Polished Plenum is due UPS on Tuesday. I'll update then.

Good timing for this thread to come along. I just got done installing a some engine bay stuff. Still need to polish everything clean though... I JUST finished. Still more to come, but for now I need to install my Ground Controls and get the new wheels on order.

Along these lines, I just painted my valve cover over the weekend and it came out pretty nice and took only a couple hours. I used aircraft stripper and a nylong detail brush. It completely stripped the old cracking paint off the cover in about 15minutes and one application. It actually looked really nice bare, but I painted it textured black and it almost looks exactly like a stock new valve cover. I was pleased because my paint jobs usually look like crap, either runny or it doesn't stick right. I used el cheapo dollar store textured paint called GripIt. I also bought wrinkle paint, but that didn't look as good on the sample metel piece I sprayed he two on to compare. polished looks good, but too much maintenance for my taste. I might do the plenum polished if I can do it myself. I would show a picture, but I dont have a hosting facility.
