The plenum cover looks great. I moved the fluid warning label and put the 4.0 emblem in the place where it was. I had a guy that has Grabber Orange vinyl cut some decals for my plenum cover. You should also look into the radiator cover extentions. I got them in black to match the rad cover. Alot of people are waiting on the body colored rad cover to be made again. I like the black ones myself.

The Radiator Sight Shield extensions are nice ... unfortunately they do not make ones that work with the Shelby Front end ... already checked.

As far as the valve covers they are staying black ..bu ... I cant take credit for the idea because I saw it at a car show recently. There was a 4.0 S197 and these were epoxied to the top of each valve cover. It looks really good ... I have a set ordered and will install them when I get them.



2007 Grabber ... Your car looks great ...

Got the Power By Ford Emblems. Used hi-temp silicon to install. I'll wait the 24 hour curing time and see how well the are fastened.

Love the PBF emblems. Where did you get them? May have to do this MOD myself.
