Show us your Engine bay
Re: Show us your Engine bay
It looks great! Nice job in keeping it that way.
BTW, outside the engine bay I see you are missing the wiper arm nut caps. I've bought these and found them to fit very secure.

Dang! Nice catch. I never noticed that. Thanks for the info. I order the caps.

I've heard that the wiper arm caps for the VW fit more snug than those supplied by M-B.

Thanks dededwards0323.........everything is hand polished. Manifolds, valve covers, supercharger, alternator, oil pan (both pieces), intake tubes, oil catch can, and anything else aluminum I could take off. I had the engine out for the swap and polished everything I thought would look and good and have a clean impact.

Painted the center part with sapphire silver/blue my cars the rest with dupli-color engine paint de -1650 cast coat aluminum and high closs clear coat over that . I found a molotow chrome pump marker with 4 mm tip from amazon to cover the front emblem and a Crossfire domed sticker from BestStickers.net - We make the Best Stickers ever! glued on a vinyl chrome strip edging around the center middle part . Take your time and use your imagination for what works best for You!
