      Atleast he's no longer "red" in the face.

      MEANWHILE

      Looks great Dwayne, nice change.
      Do you need to adjust the camber on your drivers side strut though?

      Looks nice.. But isn't starting to get tone a bit too much blue..

      I liked the balance of Blue and Polished Metal..
      I just had to add it ......

      No more blue - Thats it.

      Need a wheel alignment, but camber is pretty much right. Must be an optical illusion

        I like it but it seems slightly unbalanced with the heat shield over the airbox being blue.

        The ARC should shine on its own IMO, but it's your car and it still looks clean as hell.

        I agree, but if you want decent cold air induction, it cant. The filter on the back sucks in hot air if it isnt enclosed. Thats why ive only partially enclosed the top - so you can still see it.

          Mate, great minds think alike, I was looking at doing the same as this on my GPVR. I'm still playing with my ideas but yours have given me inspiration ;). Also challenges me because I don't want mine to end up looking like yours, one of us is enough
