My Engine Bay

It's been a long time since I had my engine bay this clean, so I thought I would take some photo's to be proud of it. I used to have it this clean all the time, but after my old engine blew, and I got this one dropped in, I haven't had the time nor place to clean it up. I don't ever pressure wash the bay, which you can probably tell, but just from some water and small brushes I think it looks pretty good. I plan on switching out all the little caps I painted blue like 5 years ago by getting some stock one's, and eventually changing my intake to a different color. Anyhow, thanks for looking.

I painted them with high temp paint from the auto parts store. And yeah, just water......and alot of scrubbing.

There is only a radiator cap assortment and dipstick. You'll still be stuck with other yellow caca. Nice linky though Jaqi.

I think the radiator cap is $27? I cant remember, but the dipsticks are $18. Kind of pricey, but I really like them. Much better than the yellow. Only a matter of time before there is something nicer than the rest of the yellow caps under the hood.
