You need to clean up that charge piping, it looks very redneck/tossed together. Fresh couplers and no more worm clamps. Other than that A+

Take some new pics with the new powder coated pipes and a freshly cleaned engine bay. That would win over the hearts of some on here.

I like the hood but it seems out of place. It would be sick if you did the roof and the trunk to match.

wow doesnt look too bad, def get them pipe powdercoated black, add some color to the fuel rail, swap over to new couplers(those look pretty beat up), and some tclamps all around....all in all...looks good, just little cosmetic stuff to help make it better
