I think I forgot to post this?

When I had my new front fascia put on, I had the body shop paint this also. What do you think?

Looks good. Was the engine cover purple or something from Kleemann? Why are you selling the car?

Yeap its clear coated. It even has the 3M clear bra material on it to protect it where it might rub!

Kleemann USA uses a modified 430 engine cover. The Pink Cover is a Euro thing. It didn't go over to well in the states.
As for selling the car, I'm just looking for something different.
