I can always appreciate an owner's sense to take on projects that make his/her car that much more unique in their perspective. Regardless of how its received by others, it's definitely something that adds value to the community and brand. I really like the engine bay bling and the shoes are a nice touch as well.

I have owned and modified a lot of cars but the Lexus engine bay has got to be the hardest, I have never modified shoes,10 points for the person to identify the computer part I used.

Dave you are close its the rotor out of a floppy disc motor machined down a bit, with a plastic engine cover clip painted gold in the centre, inside the oil cap. No points for you The radiator cap I made on my lathe with a Lexus enamel key ring logo and the dip stick handle cheers.(Young people probably don't know what a floppy disc is and a lot of old people have got it )

Great work, love what you're doing. It makes the car better and more fun to own when you actually make things for it that no one else has
