Just put together some quick pics sorry about the quality and size, i suck at taking pictures and havent trimmed them down yet, you can see the black-out job I did and all the night pics are with the lights blacked out. Enjoy :D

p.s. dont bother with the main site its from ages ago.

edit, a link would probably be a good idea: http://www.angelfire.com/clone/thawa/sooby.html

edit #2 forgot about the plates

Looks good. Your engine bay is real clean. I haven't taken shots of mine because it isn't so clean. Although it isn't that bad, but it definately isn't that clean.

What did you do to color the lenses?

The funny thing is, I've never taken the time to actually clean the engine bay, it was a little cleaner then this when I got it, I think i've wiped a few things down once or twice.

For the lights i used one and a half cans of this stuff RC window tint. It was like 4 bucks a can. I got the idea from a guy that did the same to his corrado. I also sprayed some clearcoat on it so it wouldn't fade/flake/etc as easily(which is what happened on my last car)

Ugh, I was driving to drop off the pictures earlier today and a pebble flew up and cracked the top of my windshield, just remember that :(

Interesting....

I wonder if that stuff would work on my Chrome siding above my doors. The black is coming off and I did some touch up paint stuff once already, but I don't like how it leaves brushed markes on all the touch ups.

Using a spray like that may work better.
