Well thanks everyone, I thought everyone here would say that looks like crap, heh. Its been a long day I'll take a closer look at them tomorrow. I just hope they grow on me...

I think the whole engine looks fantastic (but the strut towers look neglected.)
I do have Roush caps, I only use them for car shows though. A quick before/after my painted TB and Valve covers.





BTW, what stages is your Roush??
Its a Sport. It has all the options of the Stage 1 just not the Roush leather seats.

I'm iffy on it. looks good, but i think a darker blue wouldve looked better

on a side note, how did you get you filter to be white?

When I saw the first pic of it on all I said was "wow." I think they look great. No telling what it would be like if they matched, but your wife might be right, if they did match it might be less noticeable.

Dude your car looks amazing. And they look great on there..yes the flames can be a little darker but damn they look nice just like that.

Also they might look better when its in the light, not in the garage.

I think they look great also, but since I am a little biased, I have those color flames on the stripes on my car and they would match perfectly!

I like them. It breaks the colour up, instead of having the entire engine bay VB. My 0.02

I like it. White would look bad *** too. (Based on your before picture). You got nothing to worry about.

Nice contrast but if you want to change them later just have a painter blow a little candy blue on to darken them up.
