looks good! Make sure the aluminum's not too tight to those fuel lines, if they start to touch, the vibrations will rub holes in them (don't forget that your motor is soft mounted to the chassis)

BTW, I would have killed for a good dremel to use on this. I cut all the holes using a sawzall, grinder and drill.
all you had to do was ask...I even have the perfect bit
****, I thought you didn't have one? Weren't we discussing this a few weeks ago? I still have some work to do on the hood, and I want to clean it up a little more, could I borrow it for a few days?
BTW, how do people do the brushed look? I want to do that to help hide some of the scratches and help keep the glare down
I didn't have one there
with me
at the moment
yeah you can borrow it, gimme a call and drop by on your way to work tonight or something
I bet some rough 3m roloc pads would give you a brushed finish
you can also do a "brushed finish" or Swirrled finishish using a grinder, or orbital sander, you just have to experiment on a piece of scrap
Creighton, you have done stuff with that jeep that would make a goat go "holy ****!"
wire cup brush
Boats and hoes
Stumble in to the liquor store
With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
I know just what I'm lookin for

explain more? Flames brushed into the metal, or painted on over it? Any one have pics of this?
brushed into it using a wire wheel, but the circle method is pretty easy using a wire cup like jimmy said

I had some flames one time. Then I sprayed them with a water hose and they left.
