**show us Your Engine Bay**

[danh90]

I made sure I got good foil tho lol

I burnt through my vac pipe and the throttle cable on day one lol

oopps haha. i havent got much to worry about on mine, just brake lines and brake fluid tank. everything else is mostly a good distance away from the turbo and down pipe.

Love it Lesley! Any chance of adding some anodised black top mount covers (from Dan@Myldan), as I think they'd make a nice difference. Appreciate they'll only add weight and no power benefit so might be ruled out on those grounds

Hi mate, has your bonnet catch scraped the top of you strut top cover?

It has with mine, just wondering as i think i can see a scrape? Mine are the polished ones but you can still see it, i pmd Dan and he was willing for me to send it back so he could take a few mm from the inside so it sat a little lower

Tom.

Mine did the same on the bonnet prop.

Must've been from the movement in the struts at Bedford as thats the only time it's made contact.

Pm him mate, he will sort you out, they are making some new ones which he hopes will take around 1-2 weeks, he will be updating his thread with them.

 

[Chris.C]

Although its going to be changing soon
Got a little something else to add

 

[Chris.C]

I quite like that with the top mount covers Tim, think i may need to pm Dan and get myself a set

I gave dan a pm and he did me another set, all anodised and took a few mm off and sent a new set out all free of charge. Works a treat now tim.

WANT a bay that clean, altho it wont stay like that for long lol
its only took me 5 mins to realise you have hardly any scuttle pannel left !

 

[M4D M4X]

^^^^ lol i'm hoping it will stay clean or at least it won't take much to keep it clean now. But main reason for doing it white was to pin point any leaks if i get any, yeah i've removed the whole thing as its only to hide the bits behind it so noting structural.

You'd be surprised as to how much weight you'd save by removing unwanted metal so far i've totalled it up to 38kg .

 

[busterkins]

jealous of that ^^

Who's is the tungsten 5 next to yours mate?

Just a friend of mine, its dead. Been off the road a while now whilst he buys all the bits to make it better.

Having a full engine rebuild, respray etc. Log book says it was owned by David Coulthard but hes not sure if its the actual Coulthard.

just had a look at them, they really finish it off i think

 

[Chip-mk1]

I'd sooner add pure top mounts which look nice too, lol.

But I guess that wont be popular for your daily as they do crash slightly on the turbo.

 

[gavin182]

I painted the inlet manifold, fuel pipe protector, throttle body and top engine mount the other day.

Before:

during:

after:

sorry about all the pics

 

[Scott™]

I personally think yours looks better minus the engine cover

 

[gavin182]

Yeah I was not sure weather to keep it on or take it off.
