i agree, but that's not chrome....that's about 8hrs of tedious sanding/polishing! just did the same to mine thanks to Erik starting a revolution

correct Tony. everything in that engine bay is billet aluminum that has been "tended" to. the only piece of chrome is the Moroso catch can filter lid i t came that way

did you even have to ask me. Whipple 2.9 > wheels any day of the week. I'm rocking the 18" stockers and love them.....if I had cash puring outta my arse I would have wheels too, but in my case I dump it all into power mods :rockon:
