Default Teaser...Work in progress

Posted this somewhere else and thought I'd share with you as well! It's Copy and Paste so I don't link to another website on here

Well This is just an update that I promised to put up on my Engine and Engine bay work. This isn't going to be the finished produce since I do plan on doing internal work for an FI Build...I've done every bolt-on minus headers, for obvious reasons, and am just bored of the NA power game with the VQ.

Well enough of the boring stuff...on to the TEASER pics!

Before:







After: **Will get better pictures taken and not just on my phone shortly**

Thanks, I'm waiting for my GTSPEC Strut and will be getting a few more things as well to finish of the looks...well the FI will be the finishing touch but that'll be later this year hopefully when she's all paid for.

was gonna go with NRG but heard the chrome rusts over a short period of time...still looking for a good set of hood dampers. I also have a build that I may purchase that is capable of holding 650sh WHP soon but I want to do it correctly and by myself/someone i can trust...can't skip on quality and knowledge.

I heard it was just the fasteners? They look/say they are stainless but are actually made outta InstaRust material? I would say get em and tape off and paint the fasteners red!

Or get the $120 Tiens and prolly have the same thing happen

thanks guys!

I'm not getting tein because green and red does not flow well, lol...but someone said that the ebay ones (yes i know and don't touch ebay parts) surprisingly are pretty damn good and haven't rusted. Still may order the chrome NRG and possibly get new fasteners depending on how they hold up.
