I like to have girls do their hair and make up in that shiny *a*s*ss mevi cover. LMAO.

Not all black mind you since the polished MEVI looks sick, I like the contrast between the two actually. I would stick with the matte finish on plastic goodies and go polished on what can be. Are you going with an FMIC or one or an aftercooler in place of the chargepipe?

Cover up all bare wires and since you don't have an aftermarket intake, just spray degreaser like SimpleGreen at the dirty spots and rinse off with pressure washer.

Ive been low key on the S/C. I wanted to dyno it before I really posted any info on it. O well.
The bottle is my overflow bottle. I ditched the OEM one for that one. it takes up a bit less space and isnt such an eyesore, plus I didnt have the bracket to relocate the OEM unit.

Summit, i dont think its much bigger then the OEM unit. Its just shaped a bit more practical to be tucked away. It holds 1.5 qt. of fluid.

Im looking for somthing to use for the washer resevior so that I can do the CAI setup now.
I dont want to lose that, I use it quite often. It will have to be relocated and small enough to be tucked away somewhere.

Coilovers change the boring black strut tower mounts to nice orange billet adjustable camber plates that can definitely be seen from under the hood.

It used to be what DaBlackMaxx said but now, you have to read all the stickies in the 4th gen forum in its entirety. After reading the last post in the last sticky thread, your browser will refresh itself and you will be able to start your own thread.

Like my little purple nubs in my original pic, the camber places do look cool.

Mine is a daily beater and there's no way I can keep the engine bay that clean at all times. All these engine pics are making me wanna polish the front valve cover and upper intake manifold.
