well the brackets not to pretty but they do work... i would get some steel flat stock and with a drill and metal jigsaw blade and grinder and make em pretty.
just kinda looks ghetto with scraps... not that it doesnt work... but it can look so much better if you put alittle more time into it. and now that you have those fabed up you can easily pull 2 off and trace them onto some new steel flat bar stock from lowes and cut it out and drill holes for the bolts. and to make it even purtier use a grinder or something to round off the ends on both sides, put in the 2 you just made and then do the other 2 the same and paint them up of course with some primer and paint so it doesnt rust of course.
just gives alittle neater look for someone that really says wow look at that and gets close.
not trying to dis your work. but i know you can do better.

 

Well I wasn't really going for looks... the zip ties that were holding it on before just bugged me because the fan wasn't solid in place and it was up against the radiator fins. Plus, this was free, I already had all the materials. Now the fan is solidly mounted and from the exterior of the car it looks better because there are no zip ties sticking through the front.

If I was going to spend money, I would buy the shroud from CXRacing for $60.

 

well you dont need a fancy shroud... 5bucks in material for the steel and 5-10bucks for paint.

or if you want to be alittle more snazy keep an eye out at any buisness doing any remodeling like fast food places.. and they commonly throw away stainless steel stuff like from fridge doors, shelfs and ect and you can cut out your own shroud in stainless steel and have alittle fun with a scotch scratch pad to put some design scratches in it and bolt it up

hell i got 3 of 4 large stainless steel cooler doors and a nice stainless counter.
and it was all free. ive been saving it for a cool project.

 

New subwoofer box is almost finished and then it'll be on its way here. When he sends me pics I will post them.

Buying a Vortech BOV tomorrow for $70 shipped.

Also, sending most of the money to the guy holding the T25 stuff for me. Paying $325 shipped for charge piping, DSM T25 turbo, oil lines, tapped oil pan, and downpipe. I would have been getting the intercooler from him, but it's way too big. When he had it on his car it stuck out the bottom a couple inches, which is not fine with me. I went out and measured the space in my bumper and it looks like a 28"x5.5"x2.5"-3" intercooler will fit absolutely perfect, so i'll buy one of those from ebay.

 

Vortech BOV



Also, too some pics of the car after washing it. These were the only two that turned out remotely good.

 

I made myself one of those ground straps. Took about 8 bucks at Home Depot. Your bay is starting to look pretty nice.

 

Trust what do you use for tire shine?

 

This. It lasts weeks. I apply it after every wash, along with Mother's back to black on my trim.



And here's what I use for cleaning my wheels. **** works GOOD. Saw it on an infomercial (the spray), had to try it. lol. The brush works great for getting in between the spokes and getting the inside of the rim.

 

BLACK MAGIC PROTECTANT for interiors is garbage lol stay aaway... everything it touches becomes staticy lol

 

We have some of that stuff at work. Ill have to pic some up on friday and try it out. Thanks.

Usually I never shine my tires up, but last time I washed it I used some tire shine my dad uses from his camaro. It made my car go from OK looking, to damn that thing is clean.
