no i havent posted mine yet, i just got the nismo oil and radiator caps, as well as the zeetoyz caps... i'll have those installed soon, i'm waiting on my samco hoses and python locks to get here too. i'll post up some pics while i'm on break.

 

yeah thanks for the response i can't wait to see them. keep me post!

 

well its been a while, but i'm bringin it back

i'm almost done dressing up the engine bay, i would say this is mid-progress:

 

vitaminZ you got a very clean Z..

 

I've been working on mine as well & will post pics once the rest of my parts come in . Looking good everyone!

 

Nice bays everyone. For some reason I cannot upload mine.

 

Great pics guys... great ideas!!!

 

thank you very much for the comp.

just a question to all. do you guys keep you engine bays looking good because you like it that way or because your Zs make it to a lot of car shows? me personally, i do it because of the shows and the wow factor. people always comment on my engine bay whenever i have the hood up. usually i get, "how the hell do you keep it so clean?", or "you could eat off that thing" or "do you drive if everyday?"

 

VitaminZ: where did you get those CF pieces that go along the headlights?

 

i got it here a while back:

the quality is top notch. they still look good to this day!

 

thanks man.

 

i do it mainly for my own OCD... my car is always clean (except when i am visiting my parents on the farm, and then i want to wash it every day). i don't make it to too many shows or meets, but usually whenever someone wants to see the engine they are pretty impressed with how clean it is.

 

I also feel that having the engine bay the way you and i have ours, shows that the owner has more love for his car than the next guy. i could go 6 months without washing my car, then wash and wax it and it will look leaps and bounds better. if i were to neglect the engine bay for the dame amount of time (depends on the environment), it would look like total crap and would take a lot more work to bring it up to par compared to just washing and waxing. a wipe down every two weeks is all that is needed.

when people see my car, it is always clean. people tend, let me rephrase that, people are way more careful around my car in parking lots or any other place i might leave my Z. granted i park in BFE, nevertheless not one scratch or dent in two plus years (25 months) of ownership (knock on wood. lol)

 

Just got my Exasive Motorsports CF cooling plate today... Quality is almost perfect. Love it... Here's some pics.

 

Here's mine:

 

nice MSOsr... where did you get your radiator panel? do you do your own painting?

 

Here's an updated pic of mine as of last week.

 

What would be some nice colors to go with on a chrome silver Z?? I don't want to get much into the reds and blues, albeit all the ones I've seen here are very nice.. I definitely know I want to go with a painted rad support.

 

Turbo is really hot...

 

Thanks. Oh, and the flash made the engine cover look like it's glowing, but I assure you it's redline.
