Dress Up Bolt Arrived (dressupbolts.com)

Okay so i got sucked into the group buy, i love shiney things so i pulled the trigger! here are some pics. I wont have time to instal them for a while though (got a bunch of parts this weekend, spent ALL my time trying to put in test pipes, which i havent been able to do yet!)

Pics!
I think one bag fell out in the trunk of my car, cuz im missing a few. But they look great. I havent opened them because if i do, i may lose them!

Chris was great, needed him to change the shipping adress and he changed it right away. shipping took a long time via usps (about 3 weeks) to canada! but thats okay, they look great. (Along with the dress shirt sticker, you get a sticker that says "dressupbolts.com" with a smaller version of the dress shirt, which fell out in the truck haha.)

I got a few other things this weekend. V-leds interior, license and back up light replacements, red gtr button, berk test pipes and some myg37.com decals. If you want any pics of those i wouldnt mind!

nice any closer pics? be sure to post installed pics.

about the test pipes, are you having problems with the top bolt? when i had my hfc installed i was told one or a few of the tops bolts had to be broken off. The bottom bolts connected to the y-pipe just needs some pb blaster and your golden. be VERY CAREFUL!! when removing the o2 sensors. they are easily stripped.

Talk about subtle. But I guess it would put the finishing touches on a show car engine bay.

Are you planning to use more of that color in the engine bay? Because at the moment they kind of stick out.

I have these lined in my engine bay (Polished Titanium)... I agree that it is subtle but I would actually cringe if I had to go back. I love the subtle difference they make and it is so much cleaner than OEM. Agreeing with others, I think that more needs to be done under there though OP to pull off the blue. I have dumped quite a bit of money under my hood in aesthetics alone though so my opinion may be biased... Most might say it is a waste for something that very few will ever see (or even notice in my case with the polished color) and while I agree with that statement, I definitely stick to my choice in purchase.
