More Unique engine mods

I have been workin on the car all winter keeping it stored in the garage, I have had the engine bay torn down polishing on the tb along with mannifold,egr plate,ac lines, hand cleaned all black hoses and replaced a couple with clear hoses,new and different clamp types that imo are cleaner. I designed a new battery protector out of Polycarbonate to keep that area cleaner, wheels have been removed polished and rotated, fender wells have been hand cleaned ,exhaust area polished, workin on anodizing my extended lugs now, Im getting ready for a big car show at the end of Feb.

Thanks
Lee

Those hoses will be clear for about 10 days, LOL.

Looks real clean though. You obviously have much more patience with that stuff than I do, I never go that in depth.

Looks good. I have the same intake and love it! How'd you get fitment so that the Mishimoto logo faced up? I had to turn mine down to work (though I have a TBS too)

Im a perfectionist when it comes to stuff like that I took and drilled out the old rivits and rerivited the logo on the top where it should be
