I must agree with HKC that it does look great. It wouldn't take much more work then a day's worth to clean that engine bay up to spotless with some Liquid Wrench Silicone lube, WD40, some steel wool and a bunch of rags.

The rest of the car still looks good. How are you planning to do the two tone?

wait, what? you have 3 tiburons?

Ive got the vents. they are blue right now though. and Ive got the bumper lights as well. i plan on paining the roof, hatch, and some of the rear bumper black. then the hood black until i gather up the money for a CF or FG hood. ill clean up the engine bay a ton when i do the paint. i found bad news. a section of the frame was replaced so ill pull of the whole front end and repaint everything. hence to the frame section replacement is the white quarter support. replacement welds look nice just weren't painted.

o any one wanna buy my parts cars by chance? lol

Nice!

Get an exhaust manifold heat shield or wrap that manifold. It will make a HUGE difference in under-hood temps.

I miss my stock tib. sad.gif
