Default Finally "finished" under the hood

So my fiance had to put up with all the parts coming in while I was in Iraq last year (living tax-free over there really helped with my mod'ing "problem") and she even accused me of building a whole new car. So I finally "finished" under the hood on Saturday and kept to my promise to her to get it detailed and take pictures. Hope everyone enjoys the pics; but like she says, I cannot drive around with the hood up...

If you could find yourself a blue oil recharger kit and turn that filter back to it's original color, it would really set off the whole "blue engine bay" thing you got going in there.

Can't you just buy a blue filter? I've seen them at Autozone in blue, gray, and red

Wow, very nicely done. I am jealous! This is how the factory should be designing engine bays.

And by the way, thank you for your service sir.
