Not a fan of the alternator or A/C compressor look. But the rest looks great!

I like it! Still adjusting to the blue on the upper intake, but overall it looks way better than stock!

I agree.....really well done:icon_thumby::icon_thumby::icon_thumby:

I especially like the way you did the upper intake better than just polishing....
