Engine Bay Content: Surge Tanks, Carbon, and Engine Cover (pictures)

All the carbon work you see under the hood including Radiator front cover, wiring covers (2 both left and right) Headlight top covers (2 both left and right) Fuse Box Coverm and even the mirrors were all done by renntech55 (Shawn). Thanks a lot for the great work and a wonderful improvement to my engine bay. I strongly recommend renntech55 if you want any work done in either carbon or any other layout this is the guy to go to.

My surge tanks were done by a local company that I got a sponsorship with. They are done in gloss black and also I had them do the bolts so that it matches up nicely with the tanks. My cover was done by a local friend

Thanks a lot to everyone for the comments. Shawn that engine cover for the GTO looks sick, I can't wait till we finish everything on mine. This Sunday I got a show, after that I'm taking the car apart, I got a trip to Jamaica on OCTOBER 2nd and will be away the entire week so I was thinking about having everything back when I get back so I'll send it 1 week prior to my trip
