looks good my friend. I would consider painting the intercooler black to make it disappear, stealthy look that goes with the rest of the car.

Well, from here it's looks all healed up... and certainly won't be confused with other '68's.

BTW that bumper delete deal is a fashion statement that works!
Thanks Skip. I think it has some uniqueness to it. Just enough.

No problem. I don't have the code with me but its BMW sterling gray. Should be easy to find.

Thanks Jody. Ya know, that's a really good idea that I had not even considered and it does go with the overall theme I am going for. Tough call because I like the industrial look of the aluminum and plumbing but what you're saying makes sense.....

Thanks Todd. Hopefully if we ever race that's what you'll be seeing my friend.

this gives an idea of the difference. When I bought the car:





and after painting the intercooler black:



I've had several people comment on how they liked the blacked out intercooler; the raw aluminum is cool, but in my opinion distracts from the front end of the car.
