Anyway, it's just an engine bay. So colors dont really matter.

Nah man, that's not just ANY yellow, that's "Mad SKillz Yellow". And it goes with ANYTHING.

But Hotwheel, Get that paint **** off your throttle body, and polish it. Otherwise, looks great!

Why don't you start with the guy who fabricated your intercooler piping... his skills could use some polishing.

Seriously... "Z" bends? What happened to smooth mandrel bent tubing?

Damn Jim, just what I was thinking. BTW, as Bacon said, it doesn't look like the primary turbo inlet pipe is polished. Other than those items, beautiful. I'm looking forward to getting polished intake pipes and polishing the upper intake manifold and throttle body. First things first though, like a cat-back, intake, PFC, intercooler, etc., etc.....

How about the ABS unit or master cylinder? Looks damn good.
Where do you get silicone couplers in colors other than light blue anyways? I'm looking for red ones.
