So you had to go out and one-up me, huh? If you need someone to show you how to apply wax to that engine cover of yours, let me know!
You back in town again? If you are, let's get lunch on Tuesday so you can show off that engine bay a little.
Here's his inspiration, in case any of you were wondering:
OK, fine, you got one up on me...

Actually, Chernmax and I have both been kinda competing for nicest engine bays since we met at a meet last summer. We both like to keep it pretty under the hood. Now I have to go out and wax my engine cover! I'll concede: he's got me beat.... for now...

J/K I just wanted to blend the theme of the orient into the car since it was designed in Japan. I also lived in Japan for 12 years when I was in the Navy and the dragon is a symbol of strength, wisdom and power. Hence the VQ35...

That looks high quality. Nothing cheap about, it just looks like freaking art. I wouldn't even have put it back in my engine bay but leave it in my room so I could frame it. Looks hot and has a great design.
Your calipers look clean too.

Hell, even JC Whitney sells translucent (plastic) hoods, but I think they make them for Hondas and cost like $1k, although I suppose if you know the right people that can manufacture this type of thing, you can get a "show hood" that you can swap out whenever going to a meet/show or something.

Thanks! I'll just keep my hood closed!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
That looks just _________ (speachless)
The work you've done is just sooo inspiring I may have to start billing you
but seriously though...4 pages of praise (minus one fool) is a great tribute to your talent for modding
p.s..nice calipers too...
