What do ya think on the strut bar?... I am thinking either polishing it or anodizing it blue... Can't seem to make up my mind tho


You are very welcome. It looks great!

As for the strut bar, I would polish it. The blue would look cool but not as good as a nice polish.

I love how the Cover is cut to show the SSV, might even do that myself whenever I get around to actually purchasing an SSV.
Beautiful nonetheless

Thanks

It was fairly easy to do with a dremel / diamond circle blade / and 400 / 1000 grit sand paper to smooth out edges.

Here are a couple I did for a couple of people out of the OEM cover as well... On the OEM cover it is important to keep the bar in the center for stability as it is not as ridgid as the Carbon Fiber.

Indeed. I'm considering the SSV Plenum just to show off the blue rails since that's the only plenum that doesn't cover them. I saw one on sale here but I passed on it for now. Might consider it in the near future. The negative gains rumor doesn't really concern me. Did you get the blue rails, silver, or polished?

Mine was a sedan kit so it had to be custom made; he does not stock them. I doubt the rails are different but I didn't even think to ask for a different color and got blue. It works anyway since all my greddy crap is blue.

looks ok, but I still think Honda has the best engine bay design. you can do a lot with it. the G engine looks like azz when u remove the plastic cover. haha.
