may i ask.. but what did you use to paint your engine bay?? i like that, it almost looks like rhino liner or something... it brings out the shine in your intake manifold.

Wow...hey would a serpentine belt setup help my engine that much? And I heard you need a really powerful alternator to run electirc fans. I am thinking about getting a dual or single setup. And not rotating...that fmic os HUGE. Will it fit under the stock bumper? Also what brand is it?

it barely fits under the stock bumper, pushes against it slightly, but im going to get a aftermarket bumper, stock one looks ugly with a intercooler under it. Its a custom made intercooler so no brand, was made in nz also.

Wet sand with some 800 grit and Mineral spirits. Then I went back and polished them up, and put some Armor All on. If you don't have the time there is a paint called Fusion, forgot who makes it. Either way, it bonds with the plastic and makes it look like new rather than like it was painted.

No its because I sold him the car. I remember getting sprayed in the face with fuel when I had to fix a leak. Its all S5 trust me. I also remember cleaning out leaves and twigs out of that bay also. You're going to have to stop posting pics of the car nutbag. I miss it everyday.
