Cool! Of course you Got It but do those look "Finger Lickin' Good"?

By the way, no word on the "Grille Screen" yet for a Prototype! I'll check again.

The top one is my engine when first installed in 1998.

Scott,

I want to talk to you about your Camaro Project. I have new 2nd Gen T/A in the works.

It's not a muscle car, but I just spent all week working on cleaning up the engine bay of my daily driver.

Here it is all the engine plastics are covered in 3M Di-Noc Carbon Fiber Vinyl.

Oh wow! You've really got the hang of warming that stuff up and making it conform! Nice job.

Looks like a lot of hard work you put into it, very satisfying when you do it yourself. Congratulations, it turned out nice and wrapped very professional looking.

Thanks for the comments, it took me about a week to do. Once you get the hang of the material it is pretty forgiving letting you correct most mistakes.

Ha ha... thanks Brent. When you get that detailed everything starts to bother you. We sat the engine in and the Carburator might as well been painted pink from the factory. The "tumbled" alumninum look just wasnt sitting well with me. Took it off, apart, painted it and reassembled it. Now the damn accerator pump spring (red) stares me down everytime i look at it...
