The install photos lighting is fair and I need to learn how to better set the camera for true color pics, but their better than nothing!

I cleaned up most of the factory tapeing, (crappy done) removed a lot of the parts tags and just more detail cleaning. I remove the Hydrocarbon filter too. Also painted the Throttle Body to match Cam Covers and will paint the Intake Cover to match once I receive it.

Added some inexspensive Chrome covers to the Strut Towers.

I've been waiting ever since this car came out, for someone to clean up Fords Spaghetti supreme deal under the hood. It's looking good, considereing it's still a modern car with excessive electronic gizmos.

Nick, This engine never got dirty to begin with. I only have dust to deal with. On a dirty engine if you are asking, Simple Green works good. As far as all the quality control rainbow of color paint marks, about 60-70 of them, I use brake cleaner. Spray a little area on a rag and wipe of the markings with two-four strokes. Works the same as a thinner and be sure to use the same precautions. Do use on Body Paint.
