90' L+ B8 Swapped, "Bruce"

If you are anything like me, no matter how much you GET done , it will never BE done.

That is very true!!

Well I'm picky about some things haha :pf The air filter being mismatched bugged me, so I picked up a blue one to match. Trying to go with blue accents under hood where I can. I don't think it looks too ricey or anything, just trying to keep it clean looking and keep improving with everything I change on it, what do you guys think so far?

Old.

New.

Installed!



Do you think it would look dumb with blue calipers and drums when I finish the aspire swap? And keep the VX wheels how they are painted now, keep with a Black, blue and chrome theme.

Fred you are the biggest ricer I know... gahhhh

I thought it had a silver breather on the VC? I had to special order it. The wires lacked options at the price range I was in.

And it looks NICE!

Don't paint the drums blue! That IS ricer. Black or steel gray, but not blue... I would have the front calipers powdercoated blue since powdercoating handles the heat a lot better. Everything else looks great.

My car is silver and that's what I'm doing. I think it'll look good as long as you don't get carried away.

Got some parts today!

Met up with a festiva friend today and bought some goods! He has 3 festiva parts cars, 1 aspire parts car and a aspire daily driver.

[91blufestiva]

Is that an aspire 5spd or a festiva?

[Festiva_Fred]

^Festiva trans.

...Finally found a good timing belt cover to put on! From a aspire but it fit just fine! Looks better now I think Personally don't see the point in not running one... at least on a SOHC, if I had a DOHC then yeah I wouldn't run with the top half of the cover on..

[KingFish]

Don't forget to dust that cover off.

[Prafeston]
