Did a quick mockup to see how they will look.. These look great together!! And also picked a color powdercoat for my brembo calipers

Cleaned up my bay a bit. Still need a polished TB and will likely get a CF half engine cover, I think it would hide my timing cover better.

Finished up install. Plugs, valve cover gaskets, (no oil in tubes) Motordyne 5/16 isothermal. Painted plenum, replaced all dried hoses. Unorthodox pulleys on the way.

i hope you got solid construction bars like the motordyne ones or they will pretty much all be the same as the stillen hollow construction

You might as well polish that timing cover instead of "hiding" it....and then get rid of that band aid harness cover and forget about the carbon fiber half engine cover while your at it... Would be way better..... A wire tuck would also help, if that's what your going for of course....

I cleaned 2 months worth of dust/grime off of it. If you know of a local shop that would polish the timing cover, I would be down. Not building a show car, just want it to look nice.

If I was going to keep it forever, I would go all in but I've had it 2 years and in another 2 years will go with a brand new q60, 5.0 or used GT500 or outside chance at a used GTR.

Found out today that my 8 piston brembos won't clear the new wheels. I think they sent me the wrong offset. They cleared my rays. Ughhhhh
