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 Very Happy

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.

i dont have one and how would that help?

could i get rid of the overspray using it as it seems to have kind of engrained itself in the pearl white Confused

You can remove overspray with a clay bar.

This is a very popular starter kit, and for good reason. Everthing you need Wink
