Default Engine compartment done!

Finished most of the detail work for a show, now the only thing left will be removing all the wheels and revamping the red calipers and rotors. This will be my second attempt at showing the car at a large event.

I learn more each time. I could work on a poster sized display, but will have to wait on that.

So much for that C6 idea huh?

It's looking good Rick. I'm looking forward to the day I can start doing some of the same to my AW coupe.

Looks great! Really connects the exterior to the engine bay, without drawing attention away from what's really important there

There is a glaring need though....

You "NEED" to cover that ugly Alternator!

Other than that minor detail - it looks very good!

Thanks,Matt
