Light it up blue! (big Pictures)
With the winters in my homeland, undercarriage lighting would be unwise. I already have the washer lights but they are unavailable in red (my color of choice). However, I still want to paint me engine red...the way he did. Now I have spray painted parts before. I am just curious what parts of the tibby engine should be painted. Just the ones Jaws did? Were these parts hard to remove?
I painted my HOT plate and the cover for the spark plugs red using 500 degree engine paint about 3 weeks ago and it still looks awesome. I'll get some pictures tomarrow of my interior and the engine. I have a red thing going on smile.gif My license plate says "XTCNRED"

It's hard to see in those photos everything he painted. I didn't get the other side of his engine. But every cap, but the radiator cap is painted. It sounds horrible, but it looks awesome, and really ties the engine compartment togehter to look nice. Next Time I see hime, I'll get a decent shot of his engine during the DAY!
So what site are the blue neon needles sold? oh and jaws, the setting up of the speedometer needles aint so hard. i had the same problem as you when i installed the SR blue on white gauges, what i did was i pushed the needle in but not too tight as to where its free to move without restriction and i wounded it backwards one turn untill it rested on the little needle. that worked for me. hopefully it will work for you

Hey Random, according to SiRicer's logic, wouldn't this be a cross-post? FOR SHAME!
