Default engine makeover, lol

Check it out. The black/yellow never ends with me :-)

I like this look, if I can just de-gunk the rest of the car, and clean all the cables, hoses and vacume lines, and maybe replace a few wires here and there, it will look like a pimped out economy engine with zero horsepower and no get-up :-)

lol it looks good, though... be careful with the spark wires, though... last time I did anything that involved removing the spark wires, I somehow managed to break one... long story short: it's impossible to tell that the wire itself is broke, and after a while, you'll get a beautiful 3-cylinder Geo Metro-on-steriods engine sound and get to buy a brand spankin' new set of wires lol

i wouldn't recommend painting it the same color as the intake tube, it will look a little tacky, especially blue

just reread your post, that IS the definition of tacky, blue and green, are you trying to make a bag of skittles car or something? i'm sorry, but it's just not my cup of tea.

that's not what i typed either, you're just makingsophmoric assumptions now

i just meant that green and blue doesn't look good at all, to me at least, i mentioned the bag of skittles as a joke because green and blue are not common and aesthetically pleasing colors on a car.

so read people's posts before you make smart ass remarks, i was just joking around and stating my opinion.

ok how about u reread your own posts, your the one baseing your opinions as facts. Blue and green aren't pleasing colors on a car? You know how many people would take that opinion as the most outrageous thing. By the way you got into my buisniness by calling the colors on my car tacky, which translates to you calling ME tacky.
