Default I said i'd get pics, here they are... 56k no way.

I just got done painting my engine bay black, the car will be black once the kit is on.. The motor is from hmotorsonline, I got it about 2 weeks ago, its going to be dropped in this coming week.

to paint that bay I had to pull EVERYTHING.. I took these pics tonight after I got done putting everything back where goes. Painting was easy, the prep work sucks... That is spray paint, it looks so good because I did lots of prep to make sure it would turn out nice.

That kit is the wings west rs kit, and its real.. not a knockoff. edit.. yes I do realize that the ww kit is a knockoff of the mugen kit.. so shutup.

I'm going to be picking up some Tein SS for the suspension and some velox zeta8 sport bronze rims. I just bought some new corbeau gtsII seats today, so the rims and suspension will have to wait a few weeks. I had to get new seats, mine are brown seats from a dx, that and the seats smell like cats [so does the carpet]. The previous owner sucked.

you know it.. I used a dead blow mallett so it didn't scratch paint or anything..
I don't think I even needed to do it either.. I bought a 295 length alternator belt and the alternator is all the way in.


edit.. those sides of the car where I was shaving the mouldings.. I'm grinding that back out so I can put the WW kit on..
I got tired of sanding, thats why I bought the kit.

Engine bay looks great!

You should have cleaned up all the accessories/firewall crap though....they're very dirty! Like the brake booster
