Well over this past week it has been a job to get my engine bay looking good and finish it off
To be fair this is not the full complete of it i still need to get my white samco hoses and put them in then it will be done
But to give you an idea of how it now looks i thought i would take some pictures as it is looking damn good already and you can kind of guess how it will look with the white hoses
All comments welcome
before todays little additions
after a morning of work
thanks for looking

you can get blue ones from demon tweeks but im sure if you phone they will be able to order them in white or whatever colour you want as samco do other colours, its only 2 hoses though coolant ones i think.

You can remove overspray with a clay bar.
