Mike, since we're spending your money. :) How about going with an elbow and single blade TB like mine (to get rid of the black hat) and a CF intake tube like on Arts Corvette....that should tie it all in well! :)

You only need to add a couple accents. Just enough so they seem like part of the package and not a last minute addition.

Well perhaps just replacing his intake tube with a cf one would do the trick?

Hey Guys thanks for the replys. What I might do is have the carbon fiber painted, if that's possible. Ill have to check my options on that. Steve, I agree on the colors may not matching the theme of the rest of the engine bay. I did think about the "Chevrolet" ones, but a lot of people around here have that. They do look good though.

I don't think I have seen either one, do you have pictures of it?

Ok I know you love your ZZ430 so how about this?
Use the CF valve covers and paint them body color (blue), but first have a "ZZ430 or ZZ430SC" sticker made, paint the covers, and then peel the stickers to reveal that they are true cf. You could even have the lettering outlined in your silver stripe color. This could be the best of both worlds and pretty creatave at that!

That would look slick. I need to photoshop what that might look like. :thumbsup:

I just looked at your site and it is very nice. Is the pulley system in the pic the one that you will be using with the procharger, if so which one is that? I am researching this now so any info would be great. Thanks.
