Thanks guys.

As for the vents - I had the wheels redone and the vent painted "Top Secret Gold" to match each other. They are holding up really well so far.

did you get the BOV rewelded to that location? once the engine cover and airbox are put back on thats the only thing that shows on my install (besides the catch can but thats minor).

If only my bank account permitted, then I could be one of the cool Jersey kids.
But if I ever want a car that nice, I gotta save everything.

:] You're welcome; I'm hoping to get a Phantom Blue someday, these pics were definitely an inspiration to work harder for it.

looking awesome Kane!

Mine was ultimate stealth car, as it had a totally standard body and not a single visible mod from the outside. Yours was MS body kit and 19 inch wheels plus a custom paint? Not very stealthy ahha! But unfortunately a 70MPH collision with a fox put paid to my standard front end..... 8(
