I just thought I'd post my work in progress. My engine bay isn't nearly as spotless as other people's, but West Texas dust will get just about everywhere.

Engine Bay Thread-engine-cover18.jpg

I've got some new (blue) silicone connectors coming in, a new (BLUE) radiator cap, and new (BLUE) radiator hose connectors/braided line that I have not installed yet. I'm also looking at fender washers and some dressupbolts.com stuff, but I don't know if I have $200 worth of love for engine bay cosmetics.

Here's where I'm at now. I got a Cusco FTSB on the way. When it said "ships from factory" I didn't think it meant the factory in Japan XD

Hmm. That is very, very blue. I'm thinking too blue without support... like blue filter pop-chargers.

If you're already concerned about West Texas dust, just wait until you start using braided sleeves.

Brave man.

Wellllll, I *suppose* I could stick one of these in there:

TinyURL.com - shorten that long URL into a tiny URL

Think of all the horsepower increases!

Debadged the G37S off my trunk, and relocated it under the hood... for a bit of added engine bling.

Nice segue, Robert!

On the G, is that R2C intake Gloss Black or Black Nickle? I'm wanting that intake in Black Nickle, and would like to see more pictures of it if it is.

They are the black nickel intakes. I like them and got a great deal from Import Parts Prop so couldn't pass them up. Wish I had more pictures but I don't. Think I took that right after fixing my M370 CEL issue.

Nothing too fancy in mine, just need a strut bar and maybe a NISMO oil cap.
