Title: What you think ( engine bay)
Post by: jnufcuk on 28 September 2011, 18:48

What you guys think?
Got a few more blue hoses to put on. Also going to get an r8 oil cap then I think I'm done for the bay? Maybe spray the water bottle and coolant caps blue (different blue) to help match the hoses?
