Are we the only car junkies that paint our engines? Even if not, to me that's a way to tell the hard core people from the not. That attention to detail that you would take the time to detail the engine.

BTW What colour is the car itself?

I just saw the car in person about 40 minutes ago. Pure sex on wheels! Nick is doing a great job with it, no corner cutting at all. I may have to attempt a realignment of my finances...
