What do you think?

For the members that can remember....I modified a set of LS1 Corvette fuel rail covers to cover the valve covers of the Tuned Port System. They did say "Corvette" in red......but I got so many people asking about the Corvette engine in my car...and it got a little old. I've only got the passenger side completed so far.

Deffinitely a nice way to give a TPI motor a new face, was the installation of the covers pretty straight forward?

what's up man, yeah, pretty much....just had to cut and shape alot. The fiberglass was the worst part because it was so messy. I still have alot of work to do on the other side...it's like a big piece of fiberglass that I have to shape!

Sounds worth it for the end result. I may look into something similar but go red with black lettering for a Tuned Port LS7 look..

Brightened your pic. Try Picasa out sometime - it's a free photo viewer/changer that makes brightening your photos easy. Nice job btw.
