Just put up the close-up shot. Or do you want closer. I can go as close as you guys want because I'm not ashamed of my work. hahaha

if you powdercoat your wheels red also, it will match, the red and black look is very A-team van-ish, make a photobucket video of mr T drivin it through like a chain linked gate (be sure the hood swings up opening to show the red engine cover) and play the awesome theme song!, i dont know why people are knocking this painted engine cover, it's cool i think - the stock engine COMPARTMENT was so dull before, oh also put a red wing on too, yes

It sure stands out. I would of went with a different color. But that's what these mods are about, individuality. Right?
