I've got a local shop that I've been itching to talk to about hydro-dipping the panels in the engine bay. Pushed me over the edge with that pic, looks great. What hardware are you using there in place of the cheap plastic push pins?

 

NRG Fender Washers. These are the ones I have https://www.ebay.com/itm/NRG-INNOVAT...72.m2749.l2649. They have them in all different colors

 

Thanks! Do you mind sharing what it cost you to get the engine trim panels dipped?

 

They were $350, but he gave me a deal because I have had a few other things done by him for other cars.

 

Front End Friday shot...

 

Had the fuse covers also hydro dipped in my engine compartment

 

Would you mind posting details for the blue-centered cover fasteners in your engine bay? They look nice.

Edit: nevermind -- they are linked above. Does the back end seat permanently using the 'rivnut' tool, and then you just remove the screw and washer to remove the covers? Pretty sure that's how they work. Ordered some. Nice engine bay addition. Wondering where else these would be useful...

 

Yes, you have to drill out some of the holes a little bigger to seat the base in, then just screw the washer and bolt in.

 

Drilled all ten holes w 1/2” bit, most are plastic, a few are aluminum. Covers are actually secure instead of floating.

Does this foreshadow exhaust?

 

Nope, it already has Borla Exhaust, tips went on today

 

How does the Borla Axle-Back sound?

 

@oldwineguy are these solenoids worth the money in your opinion?

 

where did you get those exhaust tips from and did they change the sound?
