Engine bay dress-up progress

Painted the fuse box cover, engine cover, inserted the SS emblem onto the engine cover, powder-coated the strut bar.

Replacing plastic caps with aluminium billet ones, replacing the SLP blackwing CAI with a red Roto-fab one and adding a red Apex catch can (waiting on delivery).

Am I missing something?

Fantastic! I'm glad you posted this. I'm thinking about having some custom paint done to my engine cover with the center section in red, like yours. Most that I see have it in reverse, so your photo is helpful in my envisioning what I want to do.

Are you planning to do strut caps?

I would install a radiator cover, I think it makes a big difference.

I have another filter I use and actually have a filter wrap in yellow that goes over it.

It's really not that bad - but thanks
