I lost a whole lot of pictures when I reorganized my photo bucket albums. So, I'm putting up a few pictures that were lost. There are four things that I like about my car. First, the all leather, metal and wool interior, which you can't see in pictures. Second, the engine. Third, the aluminum grille. Fourth, the dual exhaust. Here are some pictures of the grille and exhaust, since they were lost.

HERE'S THE GRILLE...
AND, HERES THE EXHAUST...

Also, we had issues with the exhaust cutout controlling the second exhaust pipe not handling the heat, so I found one from Race Ready and Logan says it will handle the heat and we installed that and Logan finished the exhaust system, which is probably the most sophisticated exhaust put on an FD. However, we still have to see if it does what its supposed to do on the dyno. We'll find out next week.
Hopefully,

Damn strakes...
Covering the wiring with snakeskin...
Intake runners are being fabbed...
And here is a picture of the quick disconnect couplers I bought...
Whooops. I meant to say, "hopefully" we get the ITB's on in next few days and engine running by weekend in final form. (Although "hopefully" by itself is what I live for on this...

It won't surprise you that I have thought of exactly that, or, a stainless steel mesh like Bentley uses in its grilles. I haven't done it for a couple of reasons, but still think it would look good. I have drawn both the egg crate and mesh in the grille and I think they look nice. Honestly, I got (get?) so much flack for anything shiny that I haven't raised the idea here. Btw, the intake and ITB's are very close to going to the anodizer.

Nice job!
