Wow. I'll jump on the wagon and say that is an amazing job!

It's nice to see another person emphasize cleanliness over flashiness.

Excellent work man.

WOW are those pipes and UIM polished or chromed? Looks fantastic. You are what we call a "True Pimp" of automotive fit & finish.

The pipes and UIM are chromed. Alternator, radiator, intercooler, etc.. are polished. 2 of the pipes that come with the Apexi FMIC kit are steel and needed to be chromed so I just chromed all of them so they would match.

The car looks great donny, the paint shows off the car perfectly. I don't know if anyone asked you before but are you planning on goin to Rotary Revolutions. I'd love to see it in person.

I suppose the fan shroud took about 3-4 weeks, total turn around time. It looks pretty good though.

Doesn't really matter now anyway, it's already gone. Your car does look amazing though, I would definately be happy with it, great job!
