Ok, I've seen this posted in almost every forum on the ORG, so I guess I am going to express my opinion.
First, big props to the artist, he did a HELL of a job.
Second, big props to you for going and getting this done, spending the money, designing it, etc. etc.
Third, everytime I look at it, one sentence comes to mind:
"He put a dragon on the engine cover of his Nissan Maxima." There is just something that bothers me about it. Like I said, it looks bada$$, I guess it's just....a dragon??? I can actually see this kind of art work on a motorcycle, but...............
Alright, got that off my chest. Just my opinion. Maybe someone will agree, maybe not. Flame suit on incase people are offended by this.

Then click on Brake Caliper decals, very easy to apply, but the decals only fit the front, they come in different colors and you get 6 decals with each order. good luck...

step aside, George bauer, ex-Engine cover King....
not my personal style (you know I like it low-key), but very impressive design nonetheless. I like the "riveted" panels, looks very "realistic" and can certainly appreciate the artwork....your engine bay is quite a production!
