RRYDE Custom Engine Bays
Thanks Chris. I've been using the 35mm f1.8 the last couple of times shooting at Randy's.
**** i wish someone in new orleans had the skills you or randy have, i want my bay to be tidy
Yep.. The cap is polished and i removed the finish on the insert and polished it too..
as for your cap Marcus.. You have a V1 ARC cap.. The silver with green.. The cap can be polished but the center emblem is coated with an epoxy so you can't polish it..I't's also solid unlike the newer ones.. weighs more and actually has a better feel to it... I think the green looks clean and matches your modified ARC tank anyhow.. but... I WOULD get the caps polished for sure.. both of em...but leave the green...

Your work looks sick!!!!!!!!!!!! You have my respect!!!!!!!! I was looking for opinions on my bay. Me and Frankieg35 did all of it and got a lot of ideas off the forum. Do you haveany suggesstions on what else I can do? I'm not so worried about the things down low that you don't really see. I like the polished and chrome look. Jut getting the itch to mdo more.. Thanks and keep posting pics looks great!!!!
