I do like your engine compartment. Just a thought...I think it would look pretty cool of the acessories on the inner fenders were white. Fuse box, PS res and the rad support cover. Would really focus attention on the engine.
Does look good though.

I know what you are talking about. See if you can get a piece of carbon fiber, that would be bad a--! If not then a molded piece of fiberglass would work too

Pak made em, and I am not sure if you can still get one. I really wanna get my hands on one, even if it was one of the deformed ones
