Default Good portion of my weekend

Having a little extra time this weekend I worked on the paint a little. I had to re-spray the hood and header. Sanded and buffed them and then did a bit of chip touch up. I really should have just sprayed the nosepiece but I was too lazy . It could use a little more time under the buffer but so far it looks pretty good just a few light scratches left.

an engine shot

next weekends project along with a larger turbo this was pre paint

Sorry for the crappy pics it is my Iphone the other camera is broke at the moment

not sure of the manufacture, should do the job though. I also have an oil cooler that is the full width of the IC and 4" thick by 3" high to go on at the same time. I just need some fitting to adapt to -14

stock TB for now. I will be using a BMW unit when I put the other manifold on

I too am suffering from intercooler envy... OMG its HUGE...

and BTW, I thought I was brave sanding my RED car, you sanded a BLACK one...

Those who are not familiar, BLACK is the absolute HARDEST to get the scratches out of, because you can see them without looking... I'm yield to you sir well done.. I once almost got fired for taking 00 rubbing compound to a black car, but it looked like glass 6 hours of buffing later...
