2K05GT,
Right back at ya....Thanks!!

Say, do I detect a rear blackout panel on your photo? Hard to tell from that shot. Been thinking about that. If so, any more photos, and where did you get yours??

Thanks,
Mike
Yes, It is painted, some teenager rear ended me a few month ago, minor damage just needed paint, and I had the body shop paint it with a semigloss finish

I think Mineral Gray cars look fantastic with the trunk lid panel blacked out.
Same with Yellow. Sonic blue looks good with the honeycomb insert.

Edit... Humboldt Stang above looks great with that panel, who makes it??? Looks good

MLCRYCC,
Love the Color [sm=smiley20.gif]


2k05gt Was wondering is that braided hose just the wraps or is it real braided line and if so where did you get it?

Well it's a combination of sleeves and true fitted braided lines, (I could not go with real braided lines because of some of the strange hoses on this car, some connectors have built-in plastic retaining clips so very expensive, so Here is what you need.

1 - Spectre Stainless Steel braid Kit with Magna Clamps (Be sure to get real stainless steel, the cheep stuff turns dark overtime)
You will not use all the clamps included in the kit because of the funky connectors used on our cars.

2 – Order 2- 1 ¼ Magna clamps for the small radiator hose

3 – Order 3 ¾ inch Magna Clamps for the Power steering lines

4 – Order 4 5/8 inch Magna Clamps for the Brake vacuum lines.

The kit has enough Steel braiding to complete the car.
You will need to special order the Fuel line from Summit Racing (pricy)

I used Red high heat wire loom to cover any exposed wires for the COP and injectors
Just to protect them, I regret the neon yellow ties, I would like dark red or gray.

I found all the parts on EBay recently at a cheaper price than I paid at summit racing…..

Chrome Spectre Kit

Blue Spectre Kit

Red Spectre Kit

Blue/Red Spectre Kit

MAGNA CLAMPS From Ebay

I would like to know piont you in the direction of some even sharper Clamps although I am not sure what sizes would fit. I will also give a link to some Colored Zip Ties.
