The wire delete cleans up the engine bay so nicely. So many of the better appearance mods out there are free, the wire mod, the side molding etc. Brent does have a real nice Z

I imagine your red theme is going to turn out real nicely and keep posting updates as you progress

Its a dangerou$ site, you can spend a lot of money in a very short amount of time if you aren't careful.

DO NOT VISIT THAT SITE IF YOUR CREDIT CARD IS PAID OFF OR YOU HAVE A HIGH LIMIT

wow that is one hell of a clean z... good job bro, i hope you go far in the shows, and btw i had allways wanted that lid, but one thing kept me from it.. is it hell to keep clean?

Great looking Z. defininatly show worthy. get the !wire mod done and do a !decal mod too. those just clutter things up and detract from the beauty of everything else.

done tons of car shows....they look for engine and show mods, presentation of car and overall look of it. (cleaniness...etc)

good luck

Remove all the stickers/decals in the engine bay

Either that or paint/powdercoat your valve covers, coil brackets and paint your coils. I did all that and have all chrome bolts and still ended up covering mine with the FRCs though.

**greatwhiteZ28** · 05-25-2007, 12:25 PM

thats to bad that nobody will see all your hard work under the FRC's. but at least you know you did them and that there!!

**Y2KPewterSS** · 05-25-2007, 02:26 PM

Thats what it looks like underneath my FRCs. I asked several people their opinion on which way looked better and it was pretty close to 50/50. Both look good, but the FRCs hide some wires and just give it a little cleaner look IMO and that was the deciding factor for me.
