Al i use a set so clear you can't see them.......only joking personally i would leave them off, just make sure the front of the engine isn't prone to stones and small animals!. _________________ PHAT 33 |

hey guys, can any of you remember back to your school days where we used VACUUM FORMING. I would love to make the covers from clear plastic, for the Bling factor and being able to see if the belts are loose.
for those of you not old enough or if it wasn't at skool

Good point bobbber There must be some high melting point plastic forming plastic. Shame we couldn't get the original makers to inject their moulds with clear plastic. _________________ x2 33 16v
