Very nice, did you find a billet replacement for the idler pulley? (I see you polished the bracket). Looks like the RPS header, no?

Much respect Jimmy, that setup is off the hook, let me know if you can have another idler made. As for the hood, the one I wanted to get you and I was the Glass Ray, and apparently the fitment isn't A+ so I lost interest in it. Let's see some more pics bro...
