Looks beautiful.Does it radiate heat generated by the compression of fuel and air now that it is shiny?

Just got the car a few weeks ago. Finally had time to do a few things since it was spring break.

Blacked headlights
Red tail lights (VHT)
Vinyl roof and bumper accent

After toying with the idea for about two months, I finally decided to make the switch to E85!

I installed my Mishimoto performance fan shroud today. Of course I polished the shroud before installing...even though for most it looks just fine out of the box. I'll be doing a write up on the unboxing, installation, and operation of the shroud soon... but for now here are some quick pics...

btw, I still have to secure the 2 wiring harnesses.

Looks so clean!

It looks as if it blows hot air over the coolant overflow bottle which will cause coolant to evaporate. You could shroud the bottle with heavy gauge aluminIum foil to insulate it.

The standard fan/coolant overflow system can benefit from this too. Leave the base of the shroud open to allow cooler air to rise up like a chimney. While you are at it, put open-cell foam in the bottle breather to filter dirt from getting in. If you take the cap off and look down inside the bottle you will see where dirt is collecting.

Well since I haven't posted for a while I figured now that the snow has all melted here in Canada it was time for mods and to throw insurance back on her.

Before

After
Just a sport tech spoiler but that's just the beginning! I've officially got the bug!
