looking good, I've just finished mine too, but that was a complete rebuild, not recommended!

Is there a reason you've gone with the blue under the bonnet?

well my favorite color is blue and it helps tie in the blue from the wheels. the silver ties n the car color. the polished intercoolers look good and tie in the crome from the car and the wheels. the rebuild wasnt that bad took 2 hrs to tear down and 3 to assemble
