I like it better without the decals because without them the car has an air of mystery—"I wonder what he's got in there?"
But it's a shame that you had to give up all that sticker horsepower. :0)

Yeah your car after is sic. I envy you. You did everything right. Good job, you deserve a cookie 
However, try to get the trim piece back onto the cf hood. I had to do some sanding, but I finally got mine to fit.

you know that defeats the purpose right? some guy on honda-tech had 2 intercoolers and painted one black and left the other silver. the black one ran higher degree temps. dark colors attract heat more than light colors. touch a black car on a hot sunny day then touch a white one...big difference.




dood! i wanna hump your car
