Hi everyone,

I've been having doubts about my recent engine dress-ups. I have put blue tubing around most of the rubber hoses and such. I have also painted my engine cover, which looks horrible, so i'm going to have to redo it, which i think i will just send it off to KPI to be painted BSP. I also painted my header heat shield, and it doesn't look to good either. How can i get rid of the paint on the heat shield? I used the dupli-color stuff.

Do you guys like the blue tubing? Or is it to much? I want my car to be clean and perfect.

 

Too much tubing, i have the same thing but not as much. Also i think u can just sand out the duplicolor and just repaint it. take ur time when painting. use alot of wetsanding from time to time. BTW. you got any more pics of ur bra on? thinking of getting me one for the road. thanks!

 

I can get some after my next class, where do you have the tubing?

 

I have never been a big fan of colored tubing. I say use black regardless of what color your car is. Why would you want the wiring to stand out?! Thats just my opinion.

 

I took a bunch out from under the intake. and have none around the battery.

 

yea, I agree.. that's a LOT of tubing... I would have gone with black too

 

i kind of like the red better

 

Hey, I was born in Raleigh!

I'll do some tubing work when i get done with class

here are some bra pics Dakine:

 

The only thing i will say in my defense is i have a TON of wires, especially in the intake corner.

 

i would just go with the black tubing

 

I SMELL rice and beans lol jk

 

i smell arroz con pollo!!!!

i say it looks ok, but a darker blue or black would definitely look better IMO, looks like ur bra got some bird poop on it, glad to c its workin for u, LOL

 

i see bird poo..

you should clean that off.

 

I know, I have the best parking spot (best row). I'll clean it when I drive to the airport tommorow.

 

i agree. it seems to detract from other under the hood mods you have (or could potentially) have going on.

 

You should try and clean up some of the wires around the airbox. Perhaps run them under instead of over. Just a suggestion.

 

Thats what i plan on doing

 

Wow, that looks clean as hell, to the point where I think I've got a side project this weekend. Bravo

 

im not a big fan of the colored tubing. i dont have anything under the hood to show but i want to keep things hidden and not draw attention to details that may effect the overall clean look and lines of the car. im a big fan of people doing what they like on their car. man if you like it then keep it..
