Finished changing out the engine bay for the winter. Got sick of all the scratches and having to clean the stainless so went with CF

i might be the only one... but i think you should think about doing away with the red coolant... I like the tube... but with blue would look better

I know...that will be a spring project because I'll have to drain all the fluid. I think there is a BMW coolant that works in our cars that is blue.

Way ahead of ya! Smile
