Not bad...certainly better than stock...seems like it could be a little more substantial, though. Overall nice!wave

for real, a fuel rail would accent the TRD cover nicely - are you considering this Evan?

Rob

he's right Evan, the Stafford rail does look sweet compared to stock - nice and polished. I am thinking about getting it to go with my polished Intake and Hypermotive front strut bar. I think it will bring out the Carbon Fiber nicely thumbsup

I can't deny it looks much better than stock, but I'm not looking to modify any Performance components as long as I'm under warranty happywink

However, I'd like to see your engine bay once you get all that Carbon Fiber installed thumbsup

Thanks...I'm happy with it. I really like the IPT stuff too, but at this point I got too many Performance mods to do to drop that much cash on it. I may do it one day tho...

I have it turned that way for a couple reasons. For some reason the hood was too tight on it, actually pushed on it, and I couldn't seem to get it adjusted anymore. Also the logo is visible this way, which doesn't really matter, and the opening is facing the fan, which might help with cooler air in the summer, maybe? But the main reason was clearing the hood for some reason,...

Yeah, we even followed the directions too the T. For some reason there was quite a gap between the hood and the latch when it closed as far as it could. I happen to like how it turned out though, looks really sweet.

you have a different oil cap. my oil cap has these "fins" that stick out, thus making it too big.
