Some more of Bucky's handywork:

So here is a total list of what was done to dress my engine bay up some:

Paint and Airbrush "VW Fast" Theme:
- Valve Cover
- Intake Manifold
- Rear Firewall Cover
- Battery Cover
- Power Steering Cover
Polish:
- All engine bay caps (they used to just be aluminum, but are now a nice shine)
- Intake (it was all scratched up from me test fitting it)
- Top of Intake Manifold
- One of the hard AC lines behind the intake
Paint:
- Coolant Tank
- Windshield Washer Fluid Tank
- Timing Belt Cover
- Dipstick
Chrome:
- Replaced the bolts on the Valve cover and a few other random ones with new chrome nuts and bolts

I think that is all of it, the engine bay is pretty much complete now. There are still a few other little things I want to do to dress it up some more, but I finally have a nice "showy" engine.

First is an overall picture of the whole engine bay:

It does look much better in person. The gloss black is hard to see and the sun was reflecting off the silver. There is a lot more detail if you look closely, but my camera skills suck.
