    Details include: New half covers and fusebox custom painted and airbrushed with same candy red as wheels by Damian De'Andre. Faux-firewall panel, strut covers, coolant resevoir,and entire interior fenders painted body color to match. Safety decals removed and painted front panels body color to match also. No longer is the engine bay that "flat black" from the factory. Hope you guys like......

    I don't know if you guys could tell, but I painted the needles all black. I didn't like the look of orange needles on a red face. Hope you guys dig it!!!

    Thanks boys!! I cherish all 3 of your opinions!! Those blue injectors stick out like a damn sore thumb. I'll have to get the next set I get painted if they don't come in black or red.

    You can still see the digital readout. Does anyone still look at the analog gauges? LOL

    Chase, you do know you have a digital speedometer? LOL

    I like my analog gauges too. But, I have to look under the top portion of the steering wheel to see them. Once I found out I had the digital readout at the bottom I don't ever bend my head down to see the analog one! LOL

    Damn guys. Thanks a ton for the comps. I genuinely appreciate the kind words. I've had this car waaaay longer than any other car before it. And this is the "deepest" into the mods I've ever gotten. A lot of how I figure out what to do, and a lot of my ideas come from a compilation of your feedback and ideas I see you guys doing. So it truly means a lot to get kind words from people I consider my mentors. Thank you all very much. :)
